Roles and Permissions for NPS
Depending on the roles and permissions assigned, the user can perform actions like accessing UI and viewing various tabs. Roles and permissions are assigned to the user from the Administrator module. We have provided some predefined user roles. Depending on the role you choose, you get the associated set of permissions. You can create users and then assign a role to them to grant access as per the role you define. We support multiple user roles.
To access the permission while role creation,
- Navigate to the Administration app > Role Management > New Role.
- Enter Role Details.
- Select UI Access and API Access as per your requirements.
API access is needed so the user can access associated other product's APIs.
