Control user access to Tiger Cloud projects

When you sign up for a 30-day free trial, Tiger Cloud creates a project with built-in role-based access.

This includes the following roles:

• Owner: Tiger Cloud assigns this role to you when your project is created. As the Owner, you can add and delete other users, transfer project ownership, administer services, and edit project settings.
• Admin: the Owner assigns this role to other users in the project. A user with the Admin role has the same scope of rights as the Owner but cannot transfer project ownership.
• Viewer: the Owner and Admins assign this role to other users in the project. A Viewer has limited, read-only access to Tiger Cloud Console. This means that a Viewer cannot modify services and their configurations in any way. A Viewer has no access to the data mode and has read-queries-only access to SQL editor.

If you have the Enterprise pricing plan, you can use your company SAML identity provider to log in to Console.

Important

User roles in a Tiger Cloud project do not overlap with the database-level roles for the individual services. This page describes the project roles available in Console. For the database-level user roles, see Manage data security in your Tiger Cloud service.

New users do not need to have a Tiger Cloud account before you add them, they are prompted to create one when they respond to the confirmation email. Existing users join a project in addition to the other projects they are already members of.

To transfer project ownership:

If you have the Enterprise pricing plan, and log in to Tiger Cloud using SAML authentication or have not enabled two-factor authentication, contact support to transfer project ownership.

To stop working in a project:

The Owner can change the roles of all users in the project. An Admin can change the roles of all users other than the Owner.
