How to use roles and permissions

Admins can set users to have specific roles containing certain permissions within Logward. For example, a certain role will contain a set of permissions that enable it to access different parts of Logward. This enables companies to define who can edit and see different data, at scale, based on their role within the company.

And at the user level, multiple roles can be assigned, because complex organizations can have complex needs.

To add and define roles follow this journey:

• Leg 1 - Click on your profile icon on the top right and select "Profile"
• Leg 2 - Click on "Roles" in the left list
• Leg 3 - Search for roles, add new ones, or edit existing ones
• Last mile - Save your changes

To edit permissions follow this journey:

• Leg 1 - Click on your profile icon on the top right and select "Profile"
• Leg 2 - Click on "User Management" on the left 
• Leg 3 - Add a new user and choose permissions or select an existing user to edit its allowed accounts and roles
• Last mile - Click on "submit" to save the new settings
