In addition to managing instance-level permissions through IBM SaaS Console (for SaaS
deployments) or IBM Cloud Pak® foundational services (for software
deployments), you can grant read and write access to individual application definitions and
environments. You can also update or revoke access of existing users based on the need.
Before you begin
- Refer to Overview of user
access and roles to understand the different access levels (instance-level and
object-level).
- As best practice, limit access to application definitions and roles to only what is necessary
and appropriate for the individual user.
Procedure
-
To update or revoke access of existing users, use one of the following methods to navigate to
the desired application or environment.
- Select
and
from Definitions choose the application for which you want to manage
access.
- Select
, and
from Definitions choose the name of the environment for which you want to
manage access.
- In the Arena view, click the environment for which you want to manage
access and go to Collaborators sub navigation.
- Select Manage collaborators from the overflow menu.
- Select the relevant users or user groups.
- Choose Change role or Revoke access as
needed.
- Admin – Allows the user to view, edit, and delete the entity.
- Editor – Allows the user to view and edit the entity.
- Viewer – Allows the user to view the entity.
Note: Only Admin users can change or revoke access of other users.
Use the Grant access + option to give access to an existing user
to an application or environment.
