Roles

About Roles

Roles can be associated with numerous Security Groups. When a Security Role is assigned to a Security User, the user is granted all the privileges that have been granted to the Security Groups associated with the Security Role. Assigning Security Roles to Security Users is an efficient way to provide data permissions to the users that they will need to execute tasks in APM.

Note: Regardless of the Security Group membership, Super Users have access to all the APM features and functionalities.

The following tables list the baseline Security Roles available for the users within APM, the baseline Security Groups assigned to each Security Role, and the privileges associated with each Security Role.

Important: To avoid granting unintended privileges to a Security User, before assigning a Security User to a Security Role, make sure that you review all the privileges granted to the Security Groups that are assigned to the Security Role. Additional Security Roles, as well as Security Groups assigned to existing Security Roles, can be added via Security Manager.
