Onboarding Permissions for OCI - Read-Only

Introduction

As part of the OCI account preparation required before onboarding cloud accounts into the platform, you will need to create least privilege policies — individual policies that must be attached to your cross-account role that allow the platform to access the OCI data it needs in order to create its reports.

Least Privilege Polices by Product (Read-Only)

Each least privilege policy provides the necessary permissions to enable core functions in the platform. The policies for enabling Read-Only access to the platform are listed below organized by product and platform capability:
