NGC Account Access#

NVIDIA Cloud Functions is hosted on NVIDIA’s NGC platform. This overview gives a quick run down on how to log in to your account the first time. For detailed instructions on adding and managing users within your organization as the organization owner, please see the NGC User Guide.

When you are invited to an NGC organization with the Cloud Functions product enabled on it, your Cloud Functions account will be tied to both an NGC organization, and an NCA (NVIDIA Cloud Account) ID.

Cloud Tasks and Cloud Functions Member Roles#

We recommend the following settings when adding or enabling Cloud Functions and Cloud Tasks for users. Note that the Identity and Access Management (IAM) “User Admin” role is optional and allows users to add other users.

Warning

If the user would like to use the NVCF or NVCT (Tasks) APIs and CLI, it is extremely important to add the user roles at the Organization level not a team level. This is required for any Personal API Key generated to have the correct permissions.
