VMware Cloud on AWS supports a well-defined Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) model. In a VMware Cloud on AWS Organisation, there are two roles available, namely: Organization Member and Organization Owner. Only the Organization Owner can invite additional users to your Organization.

As an organization owner, you can invite users to your organization and give them role-based access to the organization's resources.

When you invite users to your organizations, you assign two types of role-based access:

i) Role Assignment: Role-based access to the organization. As an organization owner with full access, or as an organization member with read-only access.

ii) Assign Service Roles: Access to one or more of the cloud services of the organization. You grant users access to the cloud service according to the roles provided by each cloud service.

Organization Roles and Permissions

To see the permissions each organization role enables, see the following table.

See below for step by step instruction on assigning above mentioned Roles for a new user:

  1. Log in to the VMC Console at https://vmc.vmware.com.
  2. Click on the drop-down list with currently logged on user name at the top right of the window, and click on View Organization.

3. Click on Active Users

4. You will see a list of all the users currently in your organization. Click Add Users.

5. Enter an email address for each user you want to add, separated by a comma, space, or a new line. Select the role to assign.

6. In the above screen shot, Organization Member is selected for Role Assignment and for Assign Service Roles, VMware Cloud on AWS service has been assigned to the new user, with Administrator, NSX Cloud Admin and NSX Cloud Auditor roles.

7. Click Add.

8. The new user should get an Invite email and will now be able to log on to VMware Cloud on AWS SDDC.
