- A Dedibox account logged into the [console](https://console.online.net)
15+
- Your Dedibox and Scaleway account are [unified](/dedibox/faq/#overview)
16+
- Dedibox resources are available in your organization.
17+
18+
This page explains how to grant IAM members access to the Dedibox Console using Scaleway Identity & Access Management (IAM).
19+
20+
## Concepts
21+
22+
Access to Dedibox resources is controlled through IAM:
23+
- **Users**: IAM identities that represent a person or machine.
24+
- **Groups**: Collections of users. Permissions can be assigned at the group level.
25+
- **Policies**: Rules that define what actions a user or group can perform.
26+
27+
To allow an IAM member to access the Dedibox console, you must attach a policy to the user or the group they belong to.
28+
29+
## Giving access to the Dedibox console for Scaleway IAM Members
30+
31+
### Create or select an IAM user
32+
33+
If the user does not exist:
34+
1. In the [Scaleway console](https://console.scaleway.com), click **IAM** in the **Management & Governance** section of the side menu. The information dashboard appears.
35+
2. Click **+ Create member**.
36+
3. Enter the user information and validate.
37+
38+
If the user already exists, proceed to the next section.
39+
40+
### Create or assign a policy
41+
42+
To give the user access to Dedibox, attach an IAM policy with Dedibox permissions.
43+
Policies can be created and attached directly to a user or a group.
44+
45+
#### Create a policy
46+
47+
1. In the IAM section, click the **Policies** tab.
48+
2. Click **+ Create Policy**.
49+
3. Enter a policy name and description. Optionally, add key-value tags and select a principal.
50+
4. Click **Add rules**. The rule creation wizard appears.
51+
5. Define the scope of the rule — either at the **Project** or **Organization** level — then click **Validate**.
52+
6. Add a permission set to the rule:
53+
- Click **Bare Metal** in the products list.
54+
- Select `DediboxConsoleFullAccess`.
55+
7. Click **Validate** to confirm.
56+
8. Optionally, add a condition using CEL (Common Expression Language).
57+
9. Click **Validate** to confirm, then click **Create policy**.
58+
59+
### Attach the policy
60+
61+
You can attach the policy to:
62+
- A **group**, or
63+
- A **user** directly.
64+
65+
#### Attach to a group
66+
67+
1. In the IAM section, select **Groups**.
68+
2. Open the desired group.
69+
3. Select the **Policies** tab.
70+
4. Click **Attach Policy**, then choose:
71+
- **Select an unassigned policy** to assign the policy exclusively to the group, or
72+
- **Duplicate an existing policy** to create a copy for the group.
73+
5. Select your previously created policy from the drop-down list and click **Validate**.
74+
6. Ensure the user is a member of this group.
75+
76+
#### Attach to a user
77+
78+
1. In the IAM section, select **Users**.
79+
2. Click the user you want to attach the policy to.
80+
3. Click the **Groups & Policies** tab.
81+
4. Scroll to the **Policies** section and click **Attach Policy**, then choose:
82+
- **Select an unassigned policy** to assign the policy exclusively to the user, or
83+
- **Duplicate an existing policy** to create a copy for the user.
84+
5. Select your previously created policy from the drop-down list and click **Validate**.
85+
86+
### Verify access
87+
88+
The user can now access the Dedibox console.
89+
90+
1. Log in as the user (or ask them to log in).
91+
2. Open the **Dedibox console**: [https://console.online.net/](https://console.online.net/)
92+
93+
If permissions are correctly configured, the Dedibox resources will be visible.
94+
