Role Privileges

The Role Privileges section in the Cloud Management Portal provides portal administrators with the ability to define, assign, and manage access control for users in their cloud environment. By creating custom roles with tailored permissions, organizations can ensure that users only access the resources and actions relevant to their responsibilities—improving both security and operational efficiency.

This action outlines how to access the role privileges page, view available roles, and create or manage custom roles with granular permissions.
