Grant permissions to users for Quote Confirmation
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. The AWS account root user (the login for the person who created the AWS account; sometimes referred to as the “account admin”) has access to all services by default and doesn't need to add any IAM policies to their user profile to use the Quote Confirmation service.
The root user can create additional users under the same AWS account. 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.
To view and place orders, any additional users on the account must have the ElementalAppliancesSoftwareFullAccess IAM policy.
