Setting up Data Product Hub includes steps to create an IBM Cloud account, provision the service, and add users with appropriate roles.
Setting up the IBM Cloud account
The IBM Cloud account must be set up before you can set up Data Product Hub.
Complete these steps to set up the IBM Cloud account:
- Create an IBM Cloud account (or use an existing account)
- Provision Data Product Hub service and select a pricing plan
- Invite users to the account (if they are not already members) and assign appropriate IAM roles

| Service name | IAM Platform roles | IAM Service access roles | Permissions |
