NC2 IAM permissions
The cloud permissions that Nutanix Cloud Clusters (NC2) onboarding needs on AWS, Azure and Google Cloud, as machine- readable rows. Each row carries the public guide page it came from and that page's Last Updated date, so you can see what changed when the guides change.
permissions (270 rows)
| list | what it is | rows | origin |
|---|---|---|---|
azure-nc2-app |
the custom role the NC2 app registration holds (109 actions + 9 data actions) | 118 | NC2 user guide |
azure-setup |
what the person doing the setup needs to create and assign that role | 2 | derived from the guide's steps |
gcp-console-sa |
the NC2 console service account's role | 98 | NC2 user guide |
gcp-nodes-sa |
the cluster nodes service account's role | 23 | NC2 user guide |
aws-setup |
what a CloudFormation stack that creates IAM roles needs | 27 | derived from the guide's steps |
aws-managed-policies |
the managed policies the guide names | 2 | NC2 user guide |
Fields: list, cloud, actor, permission, kind (action, dataAction, permission, managed-policy), origin,
source_url, doc_last_updated. "Derived" rows map a step the guide describes to the cloud vendor's own permission
for it; they are labelled so you can tell them apart.
The Google Cloud console guide states 97 permissions; its table and its gcloud command both list 98, and so does this
dataset.
examples (16 rows)
Worked examples with the expected answer: Microsoft's built-in Azure roles and AWS managed policies (copied from the
vendors' published definitions), the guide's own roles, and labelled synthetic cases. Fields: list, label,
source, input (what you'd paste), expected_missing. The expected answers are computed in Python, Azure with the
nc2-iam-preflight tool's own matching function.
Use it
- In the browser: NC2 IAM permission check, which ships these lists and runs the examples as a self-test.
- In your cloud shell, against your real account: nc2-iam-preflight.
