Creating a Sub-Account

1. Log in to WACM as an Account Control Admin or an Account Control Staff user. (https://wacm.wasabisys.com/en/wasabi/auth/login) The Sub-Accounts page is displayed. 
2. Click Create Sub-Account. The Create Sub-Account form is displayed. 
3. Complete the top portion of the Create Sub-Account form with the customer name, customer email, Wasabi console password, and confirmed Wasabi console password.

   

4. Complete the bottom portion of the form. Check the On Trial box if the sub-account is for a trial account. Then, from the drop-down, select the number of Trial Days (30, 60, 90) and the Trial Quota (number of TBs) or leave the set defaults.

   

   When the trial duration expires, the trial account is automatically converted into a paid account.
5. Optionally, set the following:
   • Send Password Reset To Sub-Account Email — Wasabi will send a password reset email to the sub-account.
   • Password Reset Required — WACM will require the sub-account to perform a password reset upon the first login.
   • Enable FTP Access — Wasabi will enable FTP access to the sub-account.
   • Purchased Storage — Enter the amount of storage purchased for this sub-account. The purchased storage is used to calculate the storage utilization value. This amount can be modified at any time in the Sub-Account profile.
6. Click Create. 
7. Once the sub-account is created, a panel confirms the creation with S3 access and secret keys. To download the keys as a text file, click Download Keys. Or click Copy Keys to the copy keys to the clipboard. 

   

   WACM displays the information for the new sub-account on the Sub-Accounts page. For example:
