MinIO supports multiple long term users in addition to default user created during server startup. New users can be added after server starts up, and server can be configured to deny or allow access to buckets and resources to each of these users. This document explains how to add/remove users and modify their access rights.

## Get started

In this document we will explain in detail on how to configure multiple users.

### 1. Prerequisites

## Introduction

To integrate with custom authentication methods using the [Identity Management Plugin](../iam/identity-management-plugin.md)), MinIO provides an STS API extension called `AssumeRoleWithCustomToken`.

After configuring the plugin, use the generated Role ARN with `AssumeRoleWithCustomToken` to get temporary credentials to access object storage.
