Getting started with Yandex Resource Manager

When a user registers with Yandex Cloud, a cloud is created for the user. The cloud is a separate workspace with this user as the owner. In this cloud, the default folder and default network will be created.

The owner can create new folders and resources in this cloud, and manage access rights to them.

1. To create a folder in the cloud:

   1. In the management console, select the appropriate cloud in the list on the left.

   2. At the top right, click Create folder.

   3. Enter the folder name. The naming requirements are as follows:

      • The name must be from 3 to 63 characters long.
      • It may contain lowercase Latin letters, numbers, and hyphens.
      • The first character must be a letter and the last character cannot be a hyphen.

   4. (Optional) Enter a description of the folder.

   5. Select Create a default network. This will create a network with subnets in each availability zone. Within this network, a default security group will be created, inside which all network traffic is allowed.

   6. Click Create.

2. Grant a user access to the created folder:

   1. In the management console, select the appropriate folder.
   2. Go to the Access bindings tab.
   3. Click Configure access.
   4. In the window that opens, select User accounts.
   5. Select a user from the list or search by user.
   6. Click Add role.
