How do I create a custom role and assign permissions?

Each permission in the system has specific dependencies. You must assign prerequisite permissions before enabling dependent permissions. At the bottom of the page you can find a detailed table of permissions, their descriptions, and dependencies.
 

How do I create a custom role:

  1. Go to ''Access Management'' and click on ''Roles''
  2. Click on the ''+Add Role'' button

  3. Provide Role Details:
    1. Enter the name of the role
    2. Add a description for the role
    3. Choose permissions that align with the responsibilities of the role you’re creating

Some permissions require other permissions enabled to function correctly. For example:

To grant the Edit Domain permission, the user must also have the following permissions:

  • View Issue Properties
  • View Users/Groups with a Role on the Issue

All dependency rules are displayed on the right-hand side, enclosed in brackets.

Custom Workflows is a feature accessible to certain packages only, reach out to your Customer Success Manager for further information.
