Roles & Permissions

Access Permissions

The Settings icon in the Tag Manager dashboard's lower left sidebar provides access to the Settings Overview. From there, selecting the Permissions tab allows you to manage Identity and Access (IAM). This section displays existing roles and enables creation of new ones.

Add Role

Clicking Add Role opens a sidebar with fields for naming a new role and establishing its permissions. The permission options offer comprehensive control, including specification of which tagged resources users can access.

Selecting an existing role displays that role's permissions in a sidebar, allowing modification of the associated access rights.

Roles & Permissions Security

IAM tags and permissions enhance security infrastructure by addressing vulnerabilities. The platform implements the principle of least privilege, where users' access rights are limited to what they need to perform their job — a security best practice. The permission console in Tag Manager executes this approach to strengthen your cloud infrastructure's security posture.
