3.1.4.2 Map Users to Groups

Log in to IAM as an administrator, and map users to user groups.

To map a user to a user group:

1. Select the User Name in the Users Summary.
2. Select Mapped Groups.
3. Select the User Group Name.

   Note:

   To select a user group, select the check-box corresponding to the user group. To select all user groups displayed on the page, select the check-box marked Select All.
4. Click New Mapping to map the user to the selected user group.
   Or
   Click Unmap to remove the user group-role mapping.
   If you need to authorize an unmap request, refer to Unmap User from Group.

   Note:

   User-group mapping changes from IAM will take some time to sync with your Cloud Service. If these changes are made during the active user session, then it will be reflected on the next login.

   After a user signs into the cloud service, the user to user-group mapping created in the IAM Console will onboard into the master and mapping tables. If you unmap a user from a group in the Admin Console, navigate to the associated console and open Assign User to Groups. Deselect the user corresponding to the user group and click Finish. This is a mandatory step to complete the unmapping process.

   For more information, refer to Unmap User from Group.

   After you click New Mapping, the list of user groups you can map the user to appears in the Available Groups Summary.

5. Select a User Group.

   Note:

   If the logged-in user has both administration and authorization entitlements, an authorization view toggle button is available. Enable this button to complete the authorization.
6. Click Map.
