Managing Roles

Managing Roles

The roles page allows you to create and manage roles, which are used to group permissions together.

Role List Role List

Creating a New Role

  1. Click the "Create Role" button in the top right corner.

  2. Give the role a name (e.g., "Content Editor", "Administrator").

  3. Assign permissions to the role by checking the boxes next to each permission.

    • Permissions are grouped by category (e.g., "Users", "Roles", "Permissions").
    • You can use the "Select All" checkbox at the top of a group to quickly assign all permissions in that category.
    • Project-specific permissions are listed at the bottom.

    ::: tip Important Note on Project Access There is a special permission called access_all_projects.

    • If this permission is checked, users with this role can see and access all projects in the workspace.
    • If this permission is unchecked, users will not see any projects by default. You must then grant them access to specific projects individually from within each project's User Access settings page.

    This allows for powerful, fine-grained control over who can access what. For more information, see the User Access settings guide. :::

  4. Click "Create Role".
