Users

Create Users, manage access keys with scoped permissions, and understand isolation from the Root user.

The Users page manages additional storage identities under your account. Each User has isolated buckets and its own access keys.

Navigation: e3 Object Storage → Users

Users list

The table shows:

Column	Description
Username	User identifier (Root appears as Root user)
Account ID	Tenant ID (Users share the account’s billing; ID is shown per row)
Buckets	Bucket count
Storage	Total stored data
Access keys	Number of keys
Actions	Manage or Locked

Use Search users… to filter the list.

Create User

1. Click Create User.

2. Enter a Username (e.g. backup-server, veeam-target).

3. Click Create.

Creating a User does not ask for a password. Users are storage identities, not portal logins. You manage them only from your logged-in owner account.

Manage a User

Click Manage (or a row) to open the side panel:

• Summary: Buckets, Storage, Access keys

• Access keys table with description, permission, created date

• + Create access key (password verification required)

• Delete on individual keys

Root user in the list

The Root user appears in the table. From Manage:

• Rotate access key or Create access key — same as the Access Keys page (one key only).

• Secret shown once on create/rotate.

User keys and permissions

When creating a key for a User, choose Permission:

Permission	Typical use
Full	Read, write, list, bucket management for that user
Read/Write	Upload, download, list objects (no bucket create/delete)
Read	Download and list only
Write	Upload only

Store the secret key when shown. It cannot be retrieved later from the UI.

Delete Users

Select Users with no buckets and use Delete (bulk delete supported). You cannot delete:

• Root user

• Users with Locked status (system-managed)

• Users that still have buckets — empty or delete buckets first

Create a bucket for a User

Buckets → Create Bucket → Select Bucket Owner → choose the User.

Only that User’s keys can access the bucket. Root and other Users cannot.

Isolation summary

• Each User’s keys work only on that User’s buckets.

• Root keys work only on Root buckets.

• All usage bills to your primary account.
