Roles & Permissions

The Roles & Permissions section allows you to create and manage groups of admin tool permissions under a single name, making it easy to assign consistent access levels to multiple users. Each user can be assigned to only one role, but a single role can be shared across multiple users.

Searching for Roles

You can search for existing roles using the search block. To create a new role, click the “Add Role” button above the search bar.
