Organizations in the Asset Management portal

The Asset Management portal supports FortiCloud Organizations. FortiCloud Organizations provide a centralized account management, consolidating multiple FortiCloud accounts into structured Organizational Units (OUs). With FortiCloud Organizations, the Asset Management portal provides following features for OU admins:

  • Access to consolidated asset view across all the accounts, and the registration and transfer of assets between accounts in the Organization.

  • Switch to any customer accounts in the Organization to register and manage assets in accounts belonging the Organization.

The Organization admin account can create IAM users with the user type as Organization to access the Organization views and access the customer accounts within the Organization. The IAM user's OU scope determines which accounts the user can access. The IAM user's permission profile should include permissions for the Asset Management portal.

For information on permission profiles and scope, see Permission Profiles in the Identity & Access Management (IAM) Administration Guide. For information on user management within the Organization context, see Organization user management in the Identity & Access Management (IAM) Administration Guide.

For more information on the Organization portal, see the Organization Portal Administration Guide.

Note

The Organization view of the Asset Management portal can only be accessed when logging into the portal as an IAM user with the user type as Organization and permissions for the Asset Management portal. The Organization root account cannot perform these tasks. See Creating an IAM user with Organization permissions and Overview of creating and managing organizations in the Organization Portal guide.
