# Set User Privileges

Managed Kubernetes has a group privilege called **Create Kubernetes Clusters**. The privilege must be enabled for a group so that the group members inherit this privilege through group privilege settings.

Once the privilege is granted, contract users can create, update, and delete Kubernetes clusters using **Managed Kubernetes**.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Prerequisite:** Make sure you have one or more **Groups** in the **User Manager**. To create one, see [<mark style="color:blue;">Create a group</mark>](/cloud/set-up-ionos-cloud/management/identity-access-management/user-management.md#create-a-group).
{% endhint %}

To set user privileges to create Kubernetes clusters, follow these steps:

1. In the DCD, go to **Menu** > **Management** > **Users & Groups**.
2. Select the **Groups** tab in the **User Manager** window.
3. Select the target group name from the **Groups** list.
4. Select the **Create Kubernetes Clusters** checkbox in the **Privileges** tab.

{% hint style="success" %}
**Result:** The **Create Kubernetes Clusters** privilege is granted to all the members in the selected group.
{% endhint %}

## Revoke user privileges

You can revoke a user's **Create Kubernetes Clusters** privilege by removing the user from all the groups that have this privilege enabled.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Warning:** You can revoke a user from this privilege by disabling **Create Kubernetes Clusters** for every group the user belongs to. In this case, all the members in the respective groups would also be revoked from this privilege.
{% endhint %}

To revoke this privilege from a contract administrator, disable the administrator option on the user account. On performing this action, the contract administrator gets the role of a contract user and the privileges that were set up for the user before being an administrator will then be in effect.
