Assign IAM Shop Permission Levels to Computers

EmpowerID's IAM Shop Permission Levels facilitate access management for resources like applications, shared folders, and computers. Users can select these permission levels, like "Local Admin", "Power User", or "Backup Operator" when requesting access via the IAM Shop. For successful permission assignment, administrators need to assign IAM Shop Permission Levels to computers and map them to corresponding groups with those permissions. Keep in mind that these permission levels are just labels and must be accurately mapped to grant permissions. This article will outline the process of assigning and mapping IAM Shop Permission Levels to computers within EmpowerID.

How to assign IAM Shop Permission Levels to Computers

1. Navigate to the View One page for the computer to which you want to assign IAM Shop Permission Levels.

   The quickest way to do this is to use the Global Search located at the top of each page.

2. Click the RBAC subtab on the View page for the computer, and expand IAM Shop Assignees for Requesting Access.

3. Click the Add New button.
   

   

4. Under General, select the IAM Shop Permission Level you want to assign.
   

   

   
   Now that you have selected the permission level, the next step is to select the assignee granting the permission level (map the permission level). In our example, we are going to select an EmpowerID group that is mapped to a group on the native system. You can select any type of RBAC actor as the assignee type as long as that actor has a role that grants the access represented by the access level.

5. Under Assignee Granting the Permission Level, do the following:

   1. Select the assignee type from the Which Type of Assignee For This Policy dropdown.

   2. Select the appropriate assignee from the Select <Assignee> To Receive Policy dropdown.
      

      

6. Click Save.
   

   

    

7. Repeat to add other assignees as needed.

8. Click Submit to complete the process.
