Editing AWS OpsWorks Stacks User Settings
Important
The AWS OpsWorks Stacks service reached end of life on May 26, 2024 and has been disabled for both new and existing customers.
We strongly recommend customers migrate their workloads to other solutions as soon as possible. If you have questions about migration, reach out to the AWS Support Team on AWS re:Post
After you have imported users, you can edit their settings, as follows:
To edit user settings
-
On the Users page, choose edit in the user's Actions column.
-
You can specify the following settings.
- Self Management
-
Select Yes to allow the user to use the MySettings page to specify his or her personal SSH key.
Note
You can also enable self-management by adding IAM policy to the IAM identity that grants permissions for the DescribeMyUserProfile and UpdateMyUserProfile actions.
- Public SSH key
-
(Optional) Enter a public SSH key for the user. This key will appear on the user's My Settings page. If you enable self-management, the user can edit My Settings and specify his or her own key. For more information, see Registering a User's Public SSH Key.
AWS OpsWorks Stacks installs this key on all Linux instances; users can use the associated private key to log in. For more information, see Logging In with SSH. You cannot use this key with Windows stacks.
- Permissions
-
(Optional) Set the user's permissions levels for each stack in one place instead of setting them separately by using each stack's Permissions page. For more information on permissions levels, see Granting Per-Stack Permissions.
