Create account requests

Management Users create requests for account actions on behalf of IAM users. The ARN of the requesting IAM user is in the request.

Prerequisites

  • You must be a Management User with an appropriate role.
  • You must have all information for completing the action when you submit the request. Coordinate with the IAM user who owns the account and who would be the person asking for the action.

About this task

For a list of actions that require approval when Account Protection Mode is enabled on an account, see Table 3. That reference also shows the roles that can perform each protected action.

Each request must include all information that is required to complete the request (the request payload). The ObjectScale Portal user interface includes customized forms that collect the required payload for each request type. For example, if the request is to change the lock configuration for a bucket, the payload in the request collects the configuration changes. The payload would contain the ARN for the requesting IAM user, the object or bucket ARN, the new lock type value, and an optional retention period.

Steps

  1. On the ObjectScale Portal user interface, go to Administration > Requests.
  2. Click Create.
  3. Select the Request type.
  4. Complete the form that appears. Obtain all information from the IAM user who is requesting the action.
  5. Click Create Request.
    The request appears on the Requests page, with a status of Pending Approval.
  6. Monitor the request until the status changes to Approved.
  7. When the status changes to Approved, click the Request ID.
    The Request Details screen shows all details of the request.
    • If the request was for an ObjControl action, the Request Details screen includes action buttons to either cancel or complete the requested action. The Management User can complete the action using the buttons.
    • If the request was for an S3 action, the Request Details screen does not include action buttons. The IAM user whose ARN is in the approved request must use APIs to get the approval token and complete the action. See the next task for instructions.
