This document provides information on how to add users in Cloud IAM. Users are considered to be those with personal console access to the cloud providers' accounts.

Attention

Users and service accounts synchronism won't remove roles and permissions added directly to the Cloud. In this case, the permissions will be synced up, bringing the new ones to Segura. If the permission was inactivated/removed within Segura, it will also be removed from the Cloud Service Provider.

    Attention

    If you are a member of an access group with a template defined, when inserting the user, he must follow the rule established in the template.

    1. (Optional): In the User responsible field, select the user responsible for the user.
    2. (Optional): In the TTL (seconds) field, enter the lifetime of the user. If the value is zero, the service account won't expire.
    3. (Optional): In the Description field, enter a description.
    4. (Optional): In the Tags field, enter tags to help identifying the user.
