Assigning sub user permissions

Assigning sub user permissions

After you add a sub user with limited access levels from FortiCare (see Add a user), you must assign a role to the sub user. You can assign either ReadWrite or ReadOnly permissions to each sub user.

You can only assign permissions from FortiExtender Cloud to sub users. IAM users must have their permissions updated from the IAM portal.

To assign permissions to a sub user:
  1. From the navigation bar, go to Account > Sub Users.

    The Users page loads, displaying a table with all your users.

  2. Locate the sub user you want to assign permissions to.
  3. Under the Action column, click the Edit icon for the selected user.

    The Edit Permission window loads.

  4. In the Role drop-down, select either ReadWrite or ReadOnly.
  5. Click Save.

    FortiExtender Cloud assigns permissions to the sub user.
