Access management in Serverless Integrations
Access management
Yandex Identity and Access Management checks all operations in Yandex Cloud. If an entity does not have required permissions, IAM returns an error.
To grant permissions for a resource, assign the relevant resource roles to an entity performing operations. You can assign roles to a Yandex account, service account, local user, federated user, user group, system group, or public group. For more information, see How access management works in Yandex Cloud.
Roles for a resource can be assigned by users who have one of the following roles for that resource:
adminresource-manager.adminorganization-manager.adminresource-manager.clouds.ownerorganization-manager.organizations.owner
Also, only a user with the serverless.eventrouter.admin role for an EventRouter bus, connector, or rule can assign roles for these resources.
Resources you can assign a role for
You can assign a role to an organization, cloud, or folder. The roles assigned to organizations, clouds, and folders also apply to their nested resources.
You can use the Yandex Cloud CLI or API to assign roles for individual service resources:
Roles existing in Serverless Integrations
You can use Serverless Integrations roles (service roles) and Yandex Cloud roles (primitive roles) to manage access permissions.
Service roles
Yandex Cloud supports a separate list of roles for each Serverless Integrations component. For more information, see:
- Roles to work with Yandex EventRouter.
- Roles to work with Yandex Workflows.
- Roles to work with Yandex API Gateway.
Primitive roles
Primitive roles allow users to perform actions in all Yandex Cloud services.
auditor
The auditor role grants a permission to read configuration and metadata of any Yandex Cloud resources without any access to data.
For instance, users with this role can:
- View info on a resource.
- View the resource metadata.
- View the list of operations with a resource.
auditor is the most secure role that does not grant any access to the service data. This role suits the users who need minimum access to the Yandex Cloud resources.
viewer
The viewer role grants the permissions to read the info on any Yandex Cloud resources.
This role includes the auditor permissions.
Unlike auditor, the viewer role provides access to service data in read mode.
editor
The editor role provides permissions to manage any Yandex Cloud resources, except for assigning roles to other users, transferring organization ownership, removing an organization, and deleting Key Management Service encryption keys.
For instance, users with this role can create, modify, and delete resources.
This role includes the viewer permissions.
admin
The admin role enables assigning any roles, except for resource-manager.clouds.owner and organization-manager.organizations.owner, and provides permissions to manage any Yandex Cloud resources (except for transferring organization ownership and removing an organization).
Prior to assigning the admin role for an organization, cloud, or billing account, make sure to check out the information on protecting privileged accounts.
This role includes the editor permissions.
Instead of primitive roles, we recommend using service roles with more granular access control, allowing you to implement the least privilege principle.
For more information about primitive roles, see the Yandex Cloud role reference.
