Roles are sets of permissions that can be granted to users and teams to which they are assigned. Such a set of permissions assigned to a role can be configured as required.

The permissions assigned to a role define the features and functionalities that can be accessed by the users with that role and are inherited by all users or teams to which it is assigned. Each role has a list of permissions and a list of associated groups.

For example, the "adm_administration" permission that is assigned to the Administrator role allows the users to access the Configuration section in the Frontline Command Center. In addition to that, groups are used to match roles to specific users.

User interface

  1. Create Role: Allows you to create new custom roles
  2. Import: Allows you to import roles from a different server instance
  3. Export: Allows you to export roles to a different server instance
  4. Duplicate Role: Allows you to duplicate existing roles 
  5. Delete Role: Allows you to delete existing roles
