Specify Instance Permissions for a User in Control Center

If you were assigned the Control Center Administrator role in Account Manager, or if you were granted the Grant Permissions permission in Control Center, you can grant other users permissions to your instances. If your organization has a small number of users, specifying permissions individually might be the simplest configuration. If your organization has a large number of users, consider using roles. You can also combine both techniques. This topic applies to B2C Commerce.

You cannot change your own permissions in Control Center. Another user with the correct permissions must update your Control Center permissions for you.
  1. Log into Control Center.
  2. Click Users.
    You can click Users only if you were assigned the Control Center Administrator role. If you weren’t assigned this role, you can specify instance permissions by navigating to an instance and clicking the Users tab. From the Users tab, you can search for a user or click Add Users. After you find or add a user, you can specify the instance permissions (described in Step 3).
    Result: The Users view opens, listing all users in your organization.
  3. Click the name of a user in the list.
    Tip: If the list is long, use search.
    Result: A view opens for the selected user with two tabs: Instances and Roles. You can optionally assign the user to a role by clicking the Roles tab.
  4. On the Instances tab, click Add Instances.
    Result: The Select Instances slider opens and shows a list of all realms in your organization. Each realm is collapsed; expand a realm to see instances within it.
  5. Select one or more instances in one or more realms, and click Add.
    Result: Each selected instance is added to the Instances tab, organized by realm. Assuming you have sufficient permissions, you can specify permissions for PIG instances, SIG instances, and on‑demand sandbox (ODS) instances.

    The permissions available for assignment depend on the instance type (PIG, SIG, or ODS).
    • Reset (SIG and ODS only): Grants the ability to initialize an instance using Reset.
    • Start/Stop: Grants the ability to stop, start, and restart an instance.
    • View Statistics (PIG and SIG only): Grants the ability to view usage statistics for an instance.

      Statistics are not currently available for ODS instances.
    • Grant Permissions: Grants the ability to administratively give other users permissions against the instance.
