User Management

Serverless360 lets organisations manage their Azure resources, those constitute their Line of Business. As an organisation you can add any number of their employees as users to your Serverless360 account, to manage the associated resources. Employees using Serverless360 should be provided with exact permission they need. Too many permissions can expose an account to security violations. Insufficient permissions mean that your employees can’t get their work done efficiently. User access policy with custom role capability helps address this problem of offering fine-grained access management for Serverless360.

User Roles

Serverless360 Private Hosting authenticates your organization users using your Azure Active Directory (AD). Users can be managed through the User Management feature under Settings module in Serverless360. New user can be assigned a role to define access control. The following table provides brief descriptions of the built-in roles:
