Role Permissions

Settings > Licensing & Users > Role Permissions: pick a role, then allow or deny grouped capabilities; reset to default or save changes.

Role Permissions

Configure role-based access controls for the platform.

You choose a role on the left, then enable or disable permissions for that role on the right. Changes apply after you save.

Where to find everything: Administration Settings.

Layout

  • Roles (left) — list of roles with a count of assigned permissions (for example Administrator — 30 permissions). Select one role to edit.
  • Permissions (right) — checkboxes grouped by capability area for the selected role.

Actions

  • Reset to default — restore the selected role to built-in defaults.
  • Save changes — persist permission edits.

Permission groups (examples)

Exact labels vary by version; groups often include areas such as:

  • Test case management — create, remove, modify, or view API test cases.
  • Workflow management — create or remove workflows, view details, approve or reject (where applicable).
  • Test execution — manual execution, view logs, trigger CI/CD integrations.
  • Scheduling — schedule runs, modify scheduled executions.
  • Reporting — view reports, export formats, analytics access.
  • Environment management — environment-related setup and maintenance.

How to assign safely

  1. Start from least privilege.
  2. Add permissions by responsibility (builders vs operators vs read-only).
  3. Review assignments periodically.
  4. After edits, use Save changes before switching roles or leaving the page.

Your deployment may show different or additional roles.

Best practices

  • Keep the administrator role small and monitored.
  • Use Public API allowed roles together with RBAC for automation accounts.
  • Pair RBAC with Audit Logs.
