Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Documentation

No Bastions or Sessions are Visible

Fix general problems that prevent you from viewing and managing resources in Bastion.

Missing IAM Policy

To use Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, you must be granted security access in a policy  by an administrator. This access is required whether you're using the Console or the REST API with an SDK, CLI, or other tool. If you get a message that you don't have permission or are unauthorized, verify with your administrator what type of access you have and which compartment  to work in.

Example policy:
Allow group SecurityAdmins to manage bastion in tenancy
Allow group SecurityAdmins to manage bastion-session in tenancy
Allow group SecurityAdmins to manage virtual-network-family in tenancy
Allow group SecurityAdmins to read instances in tenancy
Allow group SecurityAdmins to inspect work-requests in tenancy
See Bastion IAM Policies for detailed policy information and more examples.

Wrong Compartment is Specified

Within the Console, be sure to choose the Compartment that contains the bastion or session that you want to view. Also be sure that an administrator has granted you access to bastions and sessions in this compartment.

The compartment in which you created a bastion can be different than the compartments that contain the target resources (Compute instances , DB systems , and so on) that you want to connect to.
