Authentication and Authorization
Authenticate and authorize users for the Compartment Quotas service.
Each service in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure integrates with IAM for authentication and authorization, for all interfaces (the Console, SDK or CLI, and REST API).
An administrator in your organization needs to set up groups , compartments , and policies that control which users can access which services, which resources, and the type of access. For example, the policies control who can create new users, create and manage the cloud network, launch instances, create buckets, download objects, and so on. For more information, see Getting Started with Policies. For specific details about writing policies for each of the different services, see Policy Reference.
If you’re a regular user (not an administrator) who needs to use the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure resources that your company owns, contact your administrator to set up a user ID for you. The administrator can confirm which compartment or compartments you should be using.
For common policies used to authorize users, see Common Policies. To manage quotas in a compartment, you must belong to a group that has the correct permissions. For example:
allow group QuotaAdmins to { QUOTA_READ, QUOTA_CREATE, QUOTA_DELETE, QUOTA_UPDATE, QUOTA_INSPECT } in tenancyFor in-depth information on granting users permissions for the Compartment Quotas service, see Details for the Quotas Service in the IAM policy reference.
