Assigning a role to a user

If you do not have the Yandex Cloud command line interface yet, install and initialize it.

1. Select the role you want to assign.

2. Get the user ID.

3. Assign the role using the command:

   yc <service_name> <resource> add-access-binding <resource_name_or_ID> \
     --role <role_ID> \
     --subject <subject_type>:<subject_ID>
   

   Where:

   • <service_name>: Name of the service to whose resource the role is assigned, e.g., organization-manager.
   • <resource>: Resource category. For an organization, organization is the category of importance.
   • <resource_name_or_ID>: Name or ID of the resource. Refer to an organization by its technical name.
   • --role: Role ID.
   • --subject: Type and ID of the subject getting the role.

   For example, assign to a user the administrator role for a directory with the b1gmit33ngp3******** ID:

   yc recource-manager folder add-access-binding b1gmit33ngp3******** \
     --role resource-manager.admin \
     --subject userAccount:aje6o61dvog2********
   

If you don't have Terraform, install it and configure the Yandex Cloud provider.

1. Describe the properties of the roles to be assigned in the configuration file:

   resource "yandex_organizationmanager_organization_iam_binding" "editor" {
     organization_id = "<organization_ID>"
     role = "<role_ID>"
     members = [
       "federatedUser:<user_ID>",
     ]
   }
   

   Where:

   • organization_id: Organization ID.

   • role: Role you want to assign. For each role, you can only use one yandex_organization manager_organization_iam_binding.

   • members: Array of the IDs of users to assign a role to:

     • userAccount:<user_ID>: User's Yandex account ID.
     • federatedUser:<user_ID>: Federated user ID.

   For more information about resources you can create with Terraform, see the provider documentation.

2. Create resources:

   1. In the terminal, change to the folder where you edited the configuration file.

   2. Make sure the configuration file is correct using the command:

      terraform validate
      

      If the configuration is correct, the following message is returned:

      Success! The configuration is valid.
      

   3. Run the command:

      terraform plan
      

      The terminal will display a list of resources with parameters. No changes are made at this step. If the configuration contains errors, Terraform will point them out.

   4. Apply the configuration changes:

      terraform apply
      

   5. Confirm the changes: type yes in the terminal and press Enter.

The specified user will then get roles in the organization. You can check the new role in the management console.

To assign a role, use the updateAccessBindings REST API method for the appropriate resource:

1. Select the role you want to assign.

2. Get the user ID.

3. Create the request body, e.g., in the body.json file. In the action property, specify ADD, and in the subject property, specify the userAccount or federatedUser type and the user ID:

   {
     "accessBindingDeltas": [{
       "action": "ADD",
       "accessBinding": {
         "roleId": "<role_ID>",
         "subject": {
           "id": "gfei8n54hmfh********",
           "type": "userAccount"
         }
       }
     }]
   }
   

4. Assign the role. For example, for an organization with the bpf3crucp1v2******** ID:

   export ORGANIZATION_ID=bpf3crucp1v2********
   export IAM_TOKEN=<IAM-token>
   curl -X POST \
       -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
       -H "Authorization: Bearer ${IAM_TOKEN}" \
       -d '@body.json' \	"https://organization-manager.api.cloud.yandex.net/organization-manager/v1/organizations/${ORGANIZATION_ID}:updateAccessBindings"
