Introduction
Overview
Identity and Access Management (IAM) of Baidu AI Cloud is a service that handles identity and permission management. IAM allows Baidu AI Cloud users to manage identity verification, authentication, and authorization by defining who (identity) can perform which operations on what cloud resources under specific conditions, thereby controlling access to cloud resources. Users can access IAM through the cloud console using a username and password, or perform identity and access management through the REST API-compliant interfaces provided in this documentation.
