IAM Identity Center user

An IAM Identity Center user is a member of AWS Organizations and can be granted access to multiple AWS accounts and applications through the AWS access portal. If their company has integrated Active Directory or another identity provider with IAM Identity Center, users in IAM Identity Center can use their corporate credentials to sign-in. IAM Identity Center can also be an identity provider where an administrator can create users. Regardless of the identity provider, users in IAM Identity Center sign in using the AWS access portal, which is a specific sign-in URL for their organization. IAM Identity Center users can't sign in through the AWS Management Console URL.

Human users in IAM Identity Center can get the AWS access portal URL from either:

• A message from their administrator or help desk employee

• An email from AWS with an invitation to join IAM Identity Center

Tip

All emails sent by the IAM Identity Center service originate from either the address <[e-mail]> or <[e-mail]>. We recommend that you configure your email system so that it accepts emails from these sender email addresses and doesn't handle them as junk or spam.

For step by step instructions on how to sign in, see Sign in to the AWS access portal.

Note

We recommend you bookmark your organization's specific sign-in URL for the AWS access portal so that you can access it later.
