Manage Roles
Security Requirements and Controls
Manage userspermission
All roles available and the permissions granted via the roles are
displayed in the User Interface in the
Roles page.
Depending on the system level permission you've chosen, you can assign different permissions for any new role you create. For example, you can create an Organization management role type and name it, say, "Operations", to which grant permissions such as the capability to view all internal notifications, or to manage other users.
While LogScale comes with a predefined set of roles — Admin, Member and Deleter — they may be customized to your specific needs. Keep in mind that it's generally a good idea to grant as few permissions as possible and to add more as needed.
