Managing Account Administrators
The account administrator role is at the service instance level. It gives a user several responsibilities to manage one or more Oracle Cloud services.

Understanding the Role of an Account Administrator
An Oracle Cloud service can have one or more account administrators assigned to it.
As an account administrator, you use your Oracle.com (single sign-on) credentials to sign in to My Account.
From My Account, you can:
-
View the Oracle Cloud services (trial and paid subscriptions) that have been assigned to you
-
Activate your services
-
Monitor the status of your services across identity domains and data centers
-
Review details about your services
-
Review and analyze historical utilization data about your services
-
Add, modify, and remove the account administrators for your services
Viewing a List of Account Administrators
The My Account Security page lists all the administrators for the current Oracle Cloud account. The account corresponds to an individual, an organization, or a company that is an Oracle customer. An account can have one or more Oracle Cloud services located in one or more identity domains in one or more data centers.
An account must have at least one account administrator who is responsible for activating an Oracle Cloud service, creating identity domains, monitoring status and usage, and designating other users as account administrators.
Use the Scope menu to filter account administrators by identity domain. By default, account administrators for all the identity domains are listed. You can also search for a specific identity domain by typing a few letters of the domain name in the search box of the Scope menu. The system suggests possible matches and the list is refined to display only those.
To search for a specific account administrator, enter the email address of the account administrator in the Search box and click the Search button. Note that you must enter the complete email address.
The following table describes the information displayed on the My Account Security page.
Field | Description |
---|---|
Full Name |
Account administrator's first name and last name. The full name is displayed according to the user’s selected language preference. For example, if English is the selected language, then the full name is displayed in the format |
User Name |
User name that the account administrator enters when signing in to the My Account application. This user name is the same name that the account administrator enters when signing in to Oracle.com. |
Applications |
List that shows the service-name (identity-domain) for each Software as a Service (SaaS) application that the account administrator is responsible for monitoring. If the list is longer than the display area, hover the cursor over the line to view the entire list. The Applications field appears only if the account administrator has been assigned services of this type. |
Platform Services |
List that shows the service-name (identity-domain) for each Platform as a Service (PaaS) service that the account administrator is responsible for monitoring. If the list is longer than the display area, then hover the cursor over the line to view the entire list. The Platform Services field appears only if the account administrator has been assigned services of this type. |
Note:
If the list of administrators spans multiple pages, then use the Next and Previous buttons to navigate across pages.
Adding an Account Administrator
Before you can add a user as an account administrator, the user must already have a valid Oracle.com account. Account administrators enter their existing Oracle.com single sign-on (SSO) account credentials (user name and password) to sign in to the My Account application.
Modifying Name and Service Assignments
As an account administrator for a service, you can modify the first name, last name, and assigned services of the account administrators for that service.
