Method 2: Using Policies for Granular Permissions

Spacelift offers several types of policies that can be used to define permissions:

• Login Policies

  • Define who can access the account and set specific privileges, such as admin, read, or write access.

  • Login policies can be more granular and restrict the time / IP address someone can access from.

  • For more details, see the Login Policies documentation.
