How to set up a role

This brief tutorial goes through how to set up a new role.

Setting up a role

On the 'User Management'-tab swap to the 'Roles'-page in the leftside navigation bar.

On the 'Roles'-page, click '+ Create role' to create a new role or click one of the existing roles to edit that role.

'Roles'-page

In this tutorial we will create a new role, but the process of creating a new role and editing an existing role is the same. Clicking '+Create role' presents you with the 'Create role'-page.

'Create role'-page

The first thing to do is to give the role a name. This name should reflect what the role can do, e.g. 'Editor', 'Translator' og 'Read only'. Next is adding the permissions.

The permissions are split into permission groups and clicking a permission group will reveal all permissions in that user group. Alternatively clicking 'Open all' will reveal all permissions.

To search for a specific permission it is possible to use the search bar under the permission headline.

Note: System administrators have all permissions by default. This can not be changed.
