I have set up an iOS 12 Shortcut/Workflow action to call an SSH remote script against unraid which will resume a Windows 10 VM if it goes to sleep. I want to have this on my daughter's phone as she sometimes accidentally does this. I don't want to have to embed the root username and password though into the config. Is it possible to setup a user on unraid that just has access to manage VMs with virsh?

Not at the moment. But you can use ControlR to do what you want.

Yes I am using that but it is a bit overkill to give to my daughter

Look into Wake On LAN.
I use Mocha WOL on my iOS devices, in combination with WOL unsaid plugin.
It’s really simple to use once configured: start the app, click on “wake up” and click on the VM name in the list (your daughter would just have one to select from)

Setting it up is straight forward to, just need to plug in the IP and MAC address of the VM.
