# Users - Manage AI users and roles

**Learn how to create, configure, and delete AI users and their roles through the OVHcloud Control Panel.**

The **users** of the AI Training platform are the users of your [Public Cloud project](https://us.ovhcloud.com/public-cloud/), which can be created and managed in the [OVHcloud Control Panel](https://manager.us.ovhcloud.com/).

 

## Requirements

- A [Public Cloud project](https://docs.us.ovhcloud.com/en/public-cloud/cross-functional/create-a-public-cloud-project.md)
- Access to the [OVHcloud Control Panel](https://manager.us.ovhcloud.com/)

 

## Instructions

### Creating and editing AI users

To grant access to **OVHcloud AI Solutions** to the users of your Public Cloud Project, you can assign them either the **AI Training Operator** or **AI Training Reader** role.

- The **AI Training Operator** role provides complete access to **AI Notebooks, AI Training, and AI Deploy** solutions. With this role, users can launch, stop, and delete AI Solutions, as well as authenticate to existing AI Notebooks, Jobs, and Apps, and the [ovhai CLI](https://docs.us.ovhcloud.com/en/public-cloud/ai-machine-learning/cli-install-client.md) using their credentials.

- If you don't need to launch, stop, or delete **AI Solutions**, but are only interested in accessing already existing deployed ones, the **AI Training Reader** role is sufficient. This role allows users to access existing AI Solutions, but not to launch, stop, or delete them.

In addition to the AI Training role, we strongly recommend adding the **ObjectStore Operator** role to your AI users. This role provides read/write access to the **OVHcloud Object Storage**, which is a persistent storage solution to store your [data](https://docs.us.ovhcloud.com/en/public-cloud/ai-machine-learning/data-concepts-best-practices.md) that is incorporated into our AI Solutions. This way, you can access your data within the **AI Solutions**.

 

#### Create a new user

From the [OVHcloud Control Panel](https://manager.us.ovhcloud.com/), navigate to the `Users & Roles` section via the `Public Cloud` menu.

Click `+ Add user`.

Enter a User description and click `Next`.

Two roles are used within **AI Training**:

- `AI Training Operator`: Grants access to **AI Training**
- `Objectstore Operator`: Grants read/write access to the OVHcloud Object Storage.

**Note:**

**AI Training Reader** can be used instead of **AI Training Operator** if you want the user to have a read-only role.

On the next screen, assign both of these roles and click `Validate`.

This will generate a password that will allow you to authenticate to your existing AI Notebooks, AI Training jobs, and AI Deploy apps, and to the `ovhai` CLI to launch new ones.

**Note:**

- If you ever lose the password of a user, you can regenerate it at any time by clicking the _more options_ `...` button next to your user, and then on `Generate a password`.
- Access to **AI Solutions** can be revoked anytime by deleting the user or removing its **AI Training Operator / Reader** role.

 

#### Edit an existing user

To edit an existing user, simply click the _more options_ `...` button next to the user, and select `Edit roles` to modify their existing roles:
