Title
Minimum permissions for a programmatic token used with an Ocean cluster controller
You can use a programmatic token to create Ocean cluster controllers. Programmatic tokens are helpful because they aren’t tied to an individual user account. If a user leaves your organization or their account is removed, the Ocean controller continues to function without interruption.

Minimum required permissions

At minimum, a programmatic token must have account viewer permissions. The viewer permission is the only permission an Ocean cluster controller needs. The controller doesn’t manage resources in your cluster. The autoscaler handles resource management.

 

If you want the same programmatic user to manage other resources, you must assign the appropriate additional permission policies.

Network clients

If you use a network client, it also requires only the account viewer permission to operate.
