Users
The Users section allows you to manage all user accounts in your Prism organization. Users are the individual identities that can be granted access to AWS accounts through permission set assignments, either directly or via group membership.
Users List
The Users page displays a paginated table of all users in your organization.
Available Actions
From the Users section, you can perform the following operations:
| Action | Description | Link |
|---|---|---|
| Create User | Add a new user to the organization | Create User |
| Delete User | Remove a user from the organization | Delete User |
Deleting a user removes them from all groups and revokes all their assignments. This action cannot be undone.
