Access control for catalogs

Access Control is used to assign LDAP groups to a catalog. You choose whether a service catalog is visible to all authenticated users of a consumer organization or just a subset of users.

To make a catalog visible to all authenticated users of a consumer organization, identify the LDAP groups that have been added to the Service Consumer role of the organization (in the Organizations area of the Cloud Service Management Console) and make sure that all of the same LDAP groups appear in the Access Control area of the service catalog. This action happens automatically when a manually created service catalog is created. For an organization's automatically created catalog, you must manually add these LDAP groups.

Tasks

  • Edit a catalog — Click the gear icon and select Edit Catalog. See Overview Tab.
  • Export a catalog — Click the gear icon and select Export Catalog. See Overview Tab.
  • Delete a catalog — Click the gear icon and select Delete Catalog.
  • Add a group — LDAP groups must be configured in the Cloud Service Management Console Organizations area. Groups are defined in Access Control in the Organizations area or in Catalogs. Click Add Group to manage access control by adding LDAP groups to the catalog. You can select from existing named DNs or enter your own name for the group or organization unit DN.
