Chapter 3. User Access settings in the Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console
Chapter 3. User Access settings in the Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console User Access is the Red Hat implementation of role-based access control (RBAC). Your Organization Administrator uses User Access to configure what users can see and do on the Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console (the console): Control user access by organizing roles instead of assigning permissions individually to users. Create groups that include roles and their corresponding permissions. Assign users to these groups, allowing them to inherit the permissions associated with their group's roles. All users on your account have access to most of the data in Insights for Red Hat Enterprise Linux. 3.1. Predefined User Access groups and roles To make groups and roles easier to manage, Red Hat provides two predefined groups and a set of predefined roles. 3.1.1. Predefined groups The Default access group contains all users in your organization. Many predefined roles are assigned to this group. It is automatically updated by Red Hat. Note If the Organization Administrator makes changes to the Default access group its name changes to Custom default access group and it is no longer updated by Red Hat. The Default admin access group contains only users who have Organization Administrator permissions. This group is automatically maintained and users and roles in this group cannot be changed. On the Hybrid Cloud Console navigate to Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console > the Settings icon (⚙) > Identity & Access Management > User Access > Groups to see the current groups in your account. This view is limited to the Organization Administrator. 3.1.2. Predefined roles assigned to groups The Default access group contains many of the predefined roles. Because all users in your organization are members of the Default access group, they inherit all permissions assigned to that group. The Default admin access group includes many (but not all) predefined roles that provide update and delete permissions. The roles in this group usually include administrator in their name. On the Hybrid Cloud Console navigate to Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console > the Settings icon (⚙) > Identity & Access Management > User Access > Roles to see the current roles in your account. You can see how many groups each role is assigned to. This view is limited to the Organization Administrator. 3.2. Access permissions The Prerequisites for each procedure list which predefined role provides the permissions you must have. As a user, you can navigate to Red Hat Hybrid Cloud Console > the Settings icon (⚙) > My User Access to view the roles and application permissions currently inherited by you. If you try to access Insights for Red Hat Enterprise Linux features and see a message that you do not have permission to perform this action, you must obtain additional permissions. The Organization Administrator or the User Access administrator for your organization configures those permissions.
