Introduction to scopes

Excerpt
nameIntroduction to scopes

A Scope is an access list that contains a list of resources (enterprises and/or datacenters) to allow access.

You can use scopes to:

  1. Create restricted sets of resources for administrators

  2. Share resources with a group of tenants and an optional tenant hierarchy

  3. Create a tenant hierarchy for pricing, billing, and cost and usage aggregation, which is useful for resellers and large organizations

You can also control access to features and resources in the platform with privileges and allowed locations.

  • You can share resources with your own scope and child scopes of your scope

  • Each tenant can belong to more than one scope

  • Each scope can have one parent scope only

  • The platform will only consider the enterprises in the resource scopes, not the locations
