Create additional users with viewing and ordering permissions
Access to the Quote Confirmation service is granted through AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies that are assigned to each user provisioned within an account. For information about IAM policies, see Understanding How IAM Works in the IAM User Guide.
The root account user (the login for the person who created the account; sometimes referred to as the “account admin”) can create additional users under the same AWS account ID. For example, you can create users with the permission to place new orders and other users with permission to download software and open technical support cases. For information about creating additional users under the same AWS account, see Creating IAM Users (Console) in the IAM User Guide.
The root account user has access to all services by default, and does not need to add any IAM policies to their user profile to use the Quote Confirmation service.
To view and place orders, any additional users on the account must have the ElementalAppliancesSoftwareFullAccess IAM policy in place.
