If you have the required permission, you can view and manage all projects in your IBM Cloud account. You can add yourself to a project so that you can delete it or change its collaborators.
Requirements
To manage all projects in the account, you must:
- Restrict resources to the current account. See steps to set the scope for resources.
- Have the Manage projects permission that is provided by the IAM Manager role for the IBM Cloud Pak for Data service.
Assigning the Manage projects permission
To grant the Manage projects permission to a user who is already in your IBM Cloud account:
- From the navigation menu, choose Administration > Access (IAM) to open the Manage access and users page in your IBM Cloud account.
- Select the user on the Users page.
- Click the Access tab and then choose Assign access+.
- Select Access policy.
- For Service, choose IBM Cloud Pak for Data.
- For Service access, select the Manager role.
- For Platform access, assign the Editor role.
- Click Add and Assign to assign the policy to the user.
Managing projects
You can add yourself to a project when you need to delete the project, delete collaborators, or assign the Admin role to a collaborator in the project. To manage projects:
- View all active projects on the Projects page in IBM watsonx by clicking the drop-down menu next to the search field and selecting All active projects.
- Join any project as Admin by clicking Join as admin in the Your role column.
- Filter projects to identify which projects you are not a collaborator in, by clicking the Filter icon and selecting Your role > No membership.
