Creating an IAM User and Granting Permissions

Prerequisites

Before assigning permissions to user groups, you should learn about available Workspace system permissions for user groups and select the permissions based on service requirements. For details about the system permissions supported by Workspace, see Workspace System Policies. For the permissions of other services, see System-defined Permissions.

Example Process

Figure 1 Assigning permissions for Workspace resources to a user

1. Create a user group and assign permissions

   Create a user group on the IAM console, assign the Workspace Administrator permission to the group, and select the authorization scope.

2. Create an IAM user and add the user to the user group

   Create a user on the IAM console and add the user to the group created in 1.

3. Log in as an IAM user and verify permissions.

   Log in to the Workspace console as the newly created user, and verify whether it has the administrator permissions.

   Click , choose Service List > Workspace, and click Buy Desktop in the upper right corner. If no message appears indicating insufficient permissions, the Workspace Administrator permission has already taken effect.
