Manage User Roles

Security Requirements and Controls

You can create a user specific role in order to grant a single user additional permissions. You can also unassign a role from a user.

User roles are roles added directly to users, in contrast to group roles, where the user gets permissions via group membership.

  1. Click on the profile menu icon and select Organization Settings → Users.

  2. Click the name of the user to view or edit from the list.

  3. Click the Permissions tab to view a list of all the repositories on which the user has permissions. Click the name of the Repository or View for a detailed list of the user's permissions and roles on that specific repository or view.

  4. Click in Role Source to change the roles assigned or to create a new role to assign to the user. You may need to switch between the user's roles to be able to edit or create a new role.
