Role-based organization access

Role-based organization access allows you to grant customer accounts special permissions to organizations. Accounts with organizational roles can perform certain account management tasks, similar to brand admins in the Admin Console, but on a smaller scale, for organizations.

Creating roles

Roles are created on an identity store basis. No restrictions apply to roles which means any role can be used to give permission to any of the organizations in the identity store. Also, accounts of the identity store don't need to be tied to any specific organization to be assigned a role to any organization.

It's up to a brand’s discretion which account gets which permission to a specific organization.

  1. Navigate to Organizations > Roles.
  2. Click '+Create role'
