Hello everyone,

I am currently creating new users, groups and permissions for my Proxmox VE host so that I stop needing to use root. (Since I want to use root only when I have no other alternative.)

First I created a linux user.
Then I created a role called BasicAccess with the following permissions:
Datastore.Allocate
Datastore.AllocateSpace
Datastore.AllocateTemplate
Datastore.Audit

Sys.Audit
Sys.Console

VM.Allocate
VM.Audit
VM.Backup
VM.Clone
VM.Config.CDROM
VM.Config.CPU
VM.Config.Cloudinit
VM.Config.Disk
VM.Config.HWType
VM.Config.Memory
VM.Config.Network
VM.Config.Options
VM.Console
VM.Migrate
VM.Monitor
VM.PowerMgmt
VM.Snapshot
VM.Snapshot.Rollback
Then I added the following permissions for that role:
/access
/nodes
/storage/local
/storage/vm-disk-zfs
/vms

And lastly I added the linux user to the BasicAccess group.

All the ISOs can be stored on datastore local. (Since for the vm disks I use ZFS and ZFS does not allow me to store the ISOs on it.)
And when I use the newly created user and go to the local datastore and then ISO, I have the option to upload a ISO to local but download from URL is grayed out.
