Teams management

Discover the concept of a team, which is a Kyndryl Modern Operations Applications construct that associates a group of users.

What is a team?

Kyndryl Modern Operations Applications teams enable the following capabilities:
  • Govern resources within an organization.
  • Hold cloud provider credentials.
  • A team may be associated with one external IdP group through an explicit mapping set on the team.
  • If a team is associated with an external IdP, then the user associations for this team will be defined and maintained in the external IdP system. The user-group membership will be propagated to the Kyndryl Modern Operations Applications through claims that are part of the single sign on (SSO) token sent from the IdP to the Kyndryl Modern Operations Applications.
  • If a team is not associated with an external IdP group, then the user associations are defined and maintained within the Kyndryl Modern Operations Applications.

Teams tab

The
Teams
 tab is one of two places where component associations take place. The other is the Users Access tab. In addition to naming the team and selecting an organization, users also add roles and assign users to a team.
To access the Teams page, follow these steps:
  1. From the Kyndryl Modern Operations Applications dashboard, click the Main menu on the left side, and select
    User Access
    ; you will be redirected to the User Access Management page.
  2. Select the
    Teams
     tab.
If you import teams from a previous version of the Kyndryl Modern Operations Applications, they will be set as
Inactive
. You will need to manually change them to active as explained in Edit a team.
You can perform the following tasks through the Teams tab:
  • Set up a team
  • Edit a team
  • Add roles to a team and associate with a business entity
  • Edit, add, or disassociate a business entity with a team
    • Remove a role from a team
  • Add users to a team
    • Unassign users from a team
  • Delete a team
