Overview

What is IAM?

The Accelerator platform's Identity and Access Management (IAM) serves as a web-based solution, expertly designed to facilitate secure control over access to resources within the platform. By employing IAM, you can efficiently manage permissions in a centralized manner, determining the specific resources users can access on the Accelerator platform. IAM plays a vital role in overseeing authentication (sign-in) and authorization (permission allocation) processes for resources.

Upon establishing an Accelerator platform account, a single sign-in identity is provided, granting comprehensive access to all services and resources in the account. Referred to as the Accelerator platform account root user, this identity can be accessed using the email address and password registered during account creation. It is highly recommended to reserve the root user for specialized tasks, while utilizing separate identities for routine activities. Secure the root user credentials diligently and employ them solely for tasks exclusively reserved for the root user.
