Creating a Role¶
Overview¶
Create a custom role when the built-in roles do not match the access pattern your team needs.
Who can use this¶
You need role:add.
Before you begin¶
Plan the role before creating it:
- Role name.
- Short description.
- Product privileges.
- Whether users need read-only or read/write access.
Create a custom role¶
- Open
Organization > Overview. - Select
Roles. - Select
Add Custom Role. - In
Role Name, enter a clear name. - In
Description, enter a short description. - In the privileges table, expand the product areas you want to configure.
- Select the required permissions in the
Permissionscolumn. - Select
Add.
Expected result¶
The role appears in the roles table with ROLE TYPE set to Custom.
Notes and limitations¶
Role Nameis required.Descriptionis optional in the UI.- The privilege table disables permission checkboxes that do not map to a supported permission key.
- Selecting a parent product area can select supported child privileges for the same permission.
Troubleshooting¶
If the custom role does not appear, refresh the Roles tab and check for validation errors.
If a permission checkbox is disabled, that permission is not supported for the selected privilege.
