Role management

Accessed from the left drawer of the platform, the "Roles and Permissions" module is the central hub for defining and managing how users interact with various resources and services. It offers a flexible and secure way to control access across your organization's projects and environments.

Viewing Roles List

When you click on the ‘Roles and Permissions' section of the module from the left drawer, you land on the roles' list.

The roles' list will give you a summary of the existing roles on the platform. The following details of the roles are visible from the list:

Column Name	Description
Name	Name of the role
Permissions	How many permissions does the role have. For example, if the role has all cluster permissions only, this count would be
Status	If the role is active or not
Assign	Users with the mentioned role.
Last Updated	When was the role last updated.

PLEASE NOTE: Atmosly has two default roles that cannot be deleted.

1. Admin - has all the permissions
2. Read-only - has only read permissions for different modules

The first user of the organisation is provided with the Admin access by default and any subsequent user who REGISTERS on the platform (not invited) is added with Read-only access.
