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 for whose resource you assign the role, e.g., organization-manager.
   • <resource>: Resource category. For an organization, it is always organization.
   • <resource_name_or_ID>: Resource name or ID. For an organization, use its technical name.
   • --role: Role ID.
   • --subject: Type and ID of the subject getting the role.

   For example, this command assigns 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 parameters of the roles you assign 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 resource.

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

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

   For more information about the 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, enter ADD and specify the userAccount or federatedUser type and user ID under subject.

   {
     "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 \
     --request POST \
     --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
     --header "Authorization: Bearer ${IAM_TOKEN}" \
     --data '@body.json' \
     "https://organization-manager.api.cloud.yandex.net/organization-manager/v1/organizations/${ORGANIZATION_ID}:updateAccessBindings"
