Managing SubUsers on FPT Object Storage

A SubUser is a sub-account created in FPT Object Storage with limited access, helping to enhance security and control data access more effectively. Depending on usage needs, administrators can assign SubUsers roles with different levels of access.

Supported roles:​

  • None: No access.
  • Read: Can only read data in the bucket.
  • Write: Can only write data to the bucket.
  • Read - Write: Has read and write access to data.
  • Full: Full permissions, including bucket configuration operations.

Using SubUsers enables clear permission separation and reduces risk when sharing access with multiple users or applications.

Step 4: Click Create to complete the SubUser creation process.
