Manage Public Cloud users
This guide explains how to manage users for your Public Cloud project.
Preamble
- To access the resources of a project, it is necessary to create OpenStack type users (see below).
- These OpenStack users are not related to Infomaniak Manager users.
- The username is generated automatically and is communicated after its creation.
- These OpenStack users are linked to a project, so they cannot access multiple projects.
- All operations on users (addition, modification, deletion, etc.) are asynchronous and may sometimes take several minutes to complete.

To create an OpenStack user once your Public Cloud is ordered:
- Click here to access the management of your product on the Infomaniak Manager (need help?).

- The user defined at the creation of your project will be in the form
PCU-XXXXand you can assign a description for your convenience.
User password management
The OpenStack user password can be either set immediately at creation or generated later via a link that is sent by email to the address of your choice.
