Admin dashboard documentation¶

Overview¶

The suite of tools available through IBM Quantum contains three levels of organization. Every job submitted to the IBM Quantum Network must be associated with a specific provider. A provider is defined by its particular combination of hub, group, and project. A hub is the top level of a given hierarchy (organization) and contains within it one or more groups. These groups are in turn populated with projects. Users can belong to more than one provider at any given time. Hubs and groups have administrators who manage people, projects, and quantum backends within groups and projects.

Providers give access to IBM Quantum services, and allow for multiple collaborators to use the same entitlements. If access must be controlled on a per-user basis, then an administrator must assign each user to their own provider.

• Hubs: A collection of groups.

• Groups: A set of one or more projects.

• Projects: A set of one or more backends that project members can access. A project can only access backends already a part of its parent group.

• Provider: A specific combination of hub, group, and project.
