# Requesting RI/SP permissions from Partners

For MSP users, you will need to request RI/SP purchase/inquiry permissions from your partner. 

*(\*No permission requests are required for Azure, Pay-As-You-Go tenants users)*

### Permission Request Process

1. **Contact Your Partner**
   * Contact the partner who manages your cloud account
   * Request Reserved Instance (RI) and Savings Plan (SP) permissions
2. **Partner Permission Configuration**
   * **AWS**: Partner grants RI/SP permissions through Partner Central
   * **Azure**: Partner configures reservation permissions in Partner Center Portal
3. **Permission Verification**
   * Receive notification from partner about permission setup completion (email or verbal)
   * Directly verify RI/SP menu accessibility in your cloud console
