Managing Groups

In Impossible Cloud Storage, groups are used to define and manage access permissions for specific resources. These groups follow the Industry S3 policy standard, ensuring compatibility and familiarity for users with experience in other environments.

By linking a list of users with one or more policies, a Group enables role-based access control at Impossible Cloud Storage Console. For instance, access for group of user in the same department can be restricted to only a list of buckets.

The Group management at Impossible Cloud Storage Console can be done in Groups tab. From there, you can add, filter and delete groups as well as edit each group's assigned users and policies.

The Groups tab is only visible for root users - and accordingly, also conducting any of the above actions.
