Overview
A role is a named set of permission rules that controls what a user can do on the platform. Every user is assigned exactly one role. Roles define permissions at the resource-and-action level — for example, “can create workflows” or “can read statistics.”See the Permissions page for a complete explanation of how the permission system works, including resource scoping, team constraints, and the full permissions matrix.
Roles Listing
The Roles page displays all roles configured for your company:| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | The role name. |
| Users | Number of users currently assigned to this role. |
| Permissions | Total number of permission rules in the role. |
Creating a Role
Enter a role name
Choose a descriptive name that reflects the role’s purpose (e.g., “Marketing Editor”, “Data Analyst”, “Admin”).
Configure permissions
The permission editor displays a matrix of resources (rows) and actions (columns). Toggle each checkbox to grant or deny the permission.Only the actions that are applicable to each resource are shown. For example, Statistics only supports Access and Export, while Workflow supports Create, Read, Update, and Delete.See the Permissions Matrix for the full list of available combinations.
Synced Permissions
Some permissions are automatically kept in sync — you do not need to configure them separately:| Resource Permission | Automatically Grants |
|---|---|
| Content (any action) | The same action on Content Font Resources |
| Datasource (any action) | The same action on OAuth Clients |
