System groups
A system group is a group of users (subjects) to which you can assign roles. In Yandex Cloud, there are two types of system groups: All users in organization X
and All users in federation N
. These groups allow you to grant access to your resources for a specific user group, but only for the operations that are allowed by the assigned role. System groups do not include service accounts.
System groups are dynamic: any new user added to an organization or federation automatically inherits all the permissions assigned to that organization or federation. When a user is removed from an organization or federation, those permissions are automatically revoked.
It is unsafe to assign roles with extensive permissions, such as editor
or admin
, to system groups.
All users in organization X
All users in organization X
includes all organization X
users.
When assigning a role to All users in organization X
via the CLI, Terraformgroup:organization:<organization_ID>:users
as the subject ID, where <organization_ID>
is the unique ID assigned to organization X
.
All users in federation N
All users in federation N
includes all identity federation N
users.
When assigning a role to All users in federation N
via the CLI, Terraformgroup:federation:<federation_ID>:users
as the subject ID, where <federation_ID>
is the unique ID assigned to identity federation N
.
