      Article summary

      This section includes details about the following sub-account tabs:

      • Usage tab
      • Account tab
      • Buckets tab

      Sub-Account Usage Tab

      From the Sub-Accounts page, select a sub-account to manage. The selected Sub-Account Usage page displays utilization statistics in the form of daily records. 

      Data Cards

      Data Cards provide the most important metrics for the selected sub-account. 

      Not all Data Cards in the Sub-Account profiles are the same; Paid (converted) accounts and Trial accounts have different Data Cards. To make this distinction, you’ll see a colored flag next to the Sub-Account name in the upper left-hand corner of the Sub-Account profile page.

      Date Range Picker

      The Date Range Picker selection box allows you to filter records for a particular day.

      Sub-Account Account Tab

      Click the Account tab, and scroll down to the Sub-Account Information section to manage account information. Select the Manage Sub-Account drop-down to perform the following:

      • Change Password
      • Change Account Email
      • Reset S3 Access Key
      • Suspend/Restore a Sub-Account
      • Delete a Sub-Account

      Changing a Password

      You can change a root user password from the Sub-Account Information section.

      1. Select the Manage Sub-Account drop-down, and then select Change Password. 
      2. Enter a new password and confirm the new password. 
      3. Click Update.

      Changing Account Email

      You can change your account email.

      1. Select the Manage Sub-Account drop-down, and then select Change Account Email. 
      2. Enter a new email account.

      3. Click Update.

      Resetting an Access Key

      You can reset an S3 access key.

      1. Select the Manage Sub-Account drop-down, and then select Reset Access Key. 
      2. Click Reset. The new S3 credentials are generated and displayed. 
      3. Click Download Keys or Copy Keys.

      Suspending a Sub-Account

      An Admin user can suspend a WACM sub-account.

      Once a sub-account is suspended, the account's access to Wasabi Console and all S3 access/secret keys is suspended. Restoration of the sub-account is required to reinstate access to the stored data.
      1. On the Sub-Accounts page, click on the sub-account you want to suspend. For example: 

        The Usage page is displayed.

      2. Click the Account tab.
      3. Scroll down to the Sub-Account Information section, select the Manage Sub-Account drop-down, and select Suspend Account.
      4. Click Suspend to confirm.

      The Control account will continue to accrue charges for this Sub-Account. The data stored in the account is not affected by the suspension; only access to the data is suspended.

      The Sub-Account page now shows the status for the selected sub-account as Suspended.

      The Sub-Account's access to the Wasabi console and all s3 access/secret keys will be suspended at this point. Restoration of the Sub-Account is required in order to re-instate access to the data stored. 

      Restoring a Suspended Sub-Account

      An Admin user can restore a suspended sub-account.

      When you restore a suspended account, access to the sub-account will be fully restored including access to Wasabi Console and S3 access/secret keys.
      1. On the Sub-Accounts page, click the sub-account you want to restore (a sub-account with a Suspended status). You can use the Filter By option to search accounts with 'Suspended' status.

        The selected Sub-Account page opens. 

      2. Click the Account tab.
      3. Scroll down to the Sub-Account Information section. From the Manage Sub-Account drop-down, select Restore Account.

      4. Click Restore to confirm.

      5. Return to the Sub-Accounts page to confirm the account has been restored to Paid Account. 

      Access to the sub-account will be fully restored at this point, including s3 access/secret keys and console access.

      Deleting a Sub-Account

      Once you confirm that you want to delete a sub-account and all of its data, you cannot undo the deletion.
      1. On the Sub-Accounts page, click the sub-account you want to delete. For example: 

      2. Click the Account tab to open the Sub-Account page.
      3. Scroll down to the Sub-Account Information section. From the Manage Sub-Account drop-down, select Delete Account.

      4. You are prompted to confirm that you want to delete the sub-account and all of its stored data. Type DELETE in the text box. 
      5.  Click Delete. 

      Sub-Account Buckets Tab

      The Buckets tab includes a list of buckets and their most recent utilization stats in this detailed bucket view. Use the date picker to view historical data for a selected sub-account.
