Create identities and control access
The Identity and Access Management subprovider lets you automate the creation and management of users, groups, and roles.
To get more information about Identity and Access Management, see the product documentation.
Prerequisites
- Understand the basics of Terraform.
- Complete the steps in Get started.
Identity and Access Management workflows
Use Identity and Access Management to manage access privileges and users. When combined, users, groups, and roles grant access to Akamai applications, services, and objects.
~> For more information about these concepts, see API concepts in the API documentation.
For Identity and Access Management, there are three objects to create:
Create users
To set up users, you need to:
The akamai_iam_user
resource represents the user.
To define the entire configuration, open the resource block and give it a name. For this case, you're going to use the name "example".
Once you have a valid country, your user should look like this:
resource "akamai_iam_user" "example" {
first_name = "John"
last_name = "Doe"
email = "john.doe@mycompany.com"
country = "USA"
phone = "(123) 321-1234"
enable_tfa = false
auth_grants_json = jsonencode([
{
roleId = 3
groupId = 12345
}
])
}
Create roles
Use akamai_iam_roles
resource to set up the roles.
To see if there are existing roles, start with the akamai_iam_grantable_roles
data source.
Create groups
Use akamai_iam_group
resource to create a group.
To see if there are existing groups, start with the akamai_iam_group
data source.
