Adding or removing portal administrators - AWS IoT SiteWise

Adding or removing portal administrators

In a few steps, you can add or remove users as administrators for a portal. Based on the user authentication service, choose one of the following options.

To add portal administrators

  1. On the portal details page, in the Portal administrators section, choose Assign administrators.

  2. On the Assign administrators page, select the check boxes for the users to add to the portal as administrators.

    Note

    If you use IAM Identity Center as your identity store, and you're signed in to your AWS Organizations management account, you can choose Create user to create an IAM Identity Center user. IAM Identity Center sends the new user an email for them to set their password. You can then assign the user to the portal as an administrator. For more information, see Manage identities in IAM Identity Center.
