Adding an IAM user group
Create a group of asset and portal permissions, and then assign users to the group.
Before you can create IAM user groups, you must create a permission profile. See Permission profiles.
To create a user group:
- Select User Groups from the left-hand navigation menu. The User Groups page opens.

- Click Add IAM User Group. The IAM User Group Information page is displayed.
- In the Group Name field, enter a name for the group.
- (Optional) In the Description field, describe the group.
- (Optional) Set the Status to Disabled. The status is Active by default.
- Click Next.
- From the Permission Scope dropdown, select an asset folder.
- In the Permissions Profile dropdown, select a profile. The Permission Details assigned to the selected profile are displayed.


If the SysAdmin profile is selected, a message will display instead of portal cards to denote that the user has full access to the Asset Management, IAM, and FortiCare portals. SysAdmin has access to Assets&Accounts and Support but does not provide access to Cloud Management or Cloud Services. See Creating a permission profile.
- Click Next. The Add IAM user(s) page is displayed.
- Assign users to the group.
- Click Add User.
- (Optional) Click Filter users by Group, to view users in a group. Selecting a user in a group will remove the user from that group.
- (Optional) Enter a username in the search bar, and enter the user name. As you type, partial results are returned.
- Select the users and click Add.
