Set User Privileges for CDN

Users need appropriate privileges to create and manage CDN distributions. Cloud CDN has a new group privilege called Access and manage CDN. This privilege must be enabled for a group so that the members of this group inherit it through group privilege settings and can manage the CDN distributions.

Prerequisite: Make sure you have one or more Groups in the User Manager. To create one, see Create a group.

To set user privileges to manage CDN distributions, follow these steps:

1. In the DCD, go to Menu > Management > Users & Groups under Users.

2. Select the Groups tab in the User Manager window.

3. Select the appropriate group to assign relevant privileges.

4. In the Privileges tab, select Access and manage CDN.

Note: You can remove the privileges from the group by clearing Access and manage CDN.

Result: The privilege to manage CDN distributions is granted to all the members in the selected group.

Revoke user privileges

You can revoke a user's Access and manage CDN privilege by removing the user from all the groups with this privilege enabled.

Warning: You can revoke a user from this privilege by disabling Access and manage CDN for every group the user belongs to. In this case, all the members in the respective groups would also be revoked from this privilege.

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