Actions for managing roles and user permissions

A system administrator can perform the following actions for user roles:

Adding a new role​

tip

We recommend assigning a minimal base role and adding extra permissions through groups. Role and group permissions are cumulative.

To add a role, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Access management → Roles.
  2. Select Create role.
  3. In the window that opens, enter the following information:
  • role ID;
  • role name;
  • role description.
  1. Use the checkboxes to assign permissions to view, create, edit, and delete entities in the system, such as projects, reports, and rules.

Deleting one or more roles​

To delete a role, follow these steps:

  1. Select the additional actions button (Additional actions) next to the required role.
  2. Select Delete.
  3. In the modal window that opens, confirm the role deletion.

Confirming deletion of one role

To delete multiple roles, follow these steps:

  1. Select the roles you want to delete using the checkboxes (Checkbox)
  2. Select the delete button (Delete) above the roles table.
  3. In the modal window that opens, confirm the role deletions.
