Manage Public Cloud users

This guide explains how to manage users for your Public Cloud project.

Introduction

• To access the resources of a project, it is necessary to create OpenStack users (read more below)
• These OpenStack users are not related to users in the Infomaniak Manager
• The username is generated automatically and is communicated after its creation
• These OpenStack users are linked to a project, so they cannot access multiple projects
• All operations on users (adding, modifying, deleting, etc.) are asynchronous and may take several minutes to complete

Create a User for Your Public Cloud

To create an OpenStack user once your Public Cloud is ordered:

1. Log in to the Infomaniak Manager (manager.infomaniak.com) using a web browser like Brave or Edge
2. Click on the icon at the top right of the interface (or navigate using the left sidebar menu, for example)
3. Select Public Cloud (in the Cloud Computing universe)
4. Click on the name of the relevant object in the displayed table
5. Create a new Project
6. The user defined at the creation of your project will be in the form PCU-XXXX, and you can assign it a description for your ease of use

User Password Management

The password for the OpenStack user can be set immediately upon creation or generated later via a link sent by email to the address of your choice.

To modify it later:

1. Log in to the Infomaniak Manager (manager.infomaniak.com) using a web browser like Brave or Edge
2. Click on the icon at the top right of the interface (or navigate using the left sidebar menu, for example)
3. Select Public Cloud (in the Cloud Computing universe)
4. Click on the name of the relevant object in the displayed table
5. Click on Manage in the Users column of the relevant project
6. Click on the menu next to the relevant user to access the password change option

Add a New User to a Project

To add additional users to your project:

1. Log in to the Infomaniak Manager (manager.infomaniak.com) using a web browser like Brave or Edge
2. Click on the icon at the top right of the interface (or navigate using the left sidebar menu, for example)
3. Select Public Cloud (in the Cloud Computing universe)
4. Click on the name of the relevant object in the displayed table
5. Click on Manage in the Users column of the relevant project
6. Click at the top of the page on Add an OpenStack User

Delete a User

To delete an existing user:

1. Log in to the Infomaniak Manager (manager.infomaniak.com) using a web browser like Brave or Edge
