Creating and Managing Users


This section shows how to manage the different types of ordinary users: internal users within an OU, external users imported from another OU, and LDAP users.

Creating and Authorizing an Internal User

You can create an internal user that natively belongs to an OU with the following steps.

Step 1: Creating an Internal User

  1. In the EnOS Management Console, click IAM > User from the left navigation panel.
  2. In the Internal User tab, Click New User.
  3. In the Basic Information section, provide the basic information of the new user and click Next.
    • Send By: You can choose to send the password to the owner of the user account via phone, email, or other secure offline approaches.

Step 2: Grant Permission

You can assign permission for a user via the following options:

  • Granting policies
  • Assigning user to user groups. This option will enable the user to inherit all the permissions that are assigned to the user groups.


To grant policies:

  1. In the Policies tab, click Assign Policies.
  2. In the pop-up window, select the policies to assign to this user and click Save.
  3. Click Save to create the user.


To add a user to groups:

  1. In the Add User to Group tab, click Add to User Group.
  2. In the pop-up window, select the user group to be assigned to this user and click Save.
  3. Click Save to create the user.

Adding and Authorizing an External User

You can add and authorize a user from another OU using the following steps.

Step 1: Adding an External User


Adding an user from another OU

  1. In the EnOS Management Console, click IAM > User from the left navigation panel.
  2. In the External User tab, Click Import User.
  3. In the pop-up window, enter the full username of the external user. If the name is correct, the detailed information of the user will be displayed in the dialog. Click Confirm to proceed.
  4. Click Next.


Adding an LDAP User

To add an LDAP user, you need to first configure the connection to an LDAP server. For more information, see Getting Started with LDAP Federation.

Step 2: Grant Permission

The steps to granting permission for an external or LDAP user is the same as the steps for an internal user.

Deleting an Internal User

When you delete an internal user, this user account is completely removed from the EnOS Cloud.

  1. In the EnOS Management Console, click IAM > User from the left navigation panel.
  2. In the Internal User tab, click the img1 of the user to be deleted.
  3. In the pop-up window, click Confirm to delete this user account.

Removing an External User

When you remove an external user, this user is removed only from the current organization. The user still exists in its root organization and other organizations that the user is imported into.

  1. In the EnOS Management Console, click IAM > User from the left navigation panel.
  2. In the External User tab, click the img1 of the user to be deleted.
  3. In the pop-up window, click Confirm to remove this user.

Resetting Password

  1. In the EnOS Management Console, click IAM > User from the left navigation panel.
  2. In the Internal User tab, click the img2 of the user to reset password for.
  3. In the Edit User Information page, click the Reset icon next to the password field. The system will generate a new password which will be shown next to the Reset icon.
  4. Store this password and click Save.
