Roles
Learn how to create, edit and archive a role.
A role is a set of permissions that can be granted to groups. These permissions can change depending on which environment the user is in: test or production.
The Roles page
The Roles page shows you a table with active roles in your realm.
This table shows the role name and description, as well as buttons to view, edit, and archive them.
