Manage Roles

A user with the Super User role can map predefined roles in Paragon Automation to the IdP user groups. For example, you can map an IdP group to the Network Admin role so that the users that are part of the group have the access privileges of the Network Admin user in Paragon Automation.

Note:

If a user's role is defined both as part of an IdP and as a local user in Paragon Automation, then the access privileges assigned as a local user overrides access privileges defined for the IdP.

Table 1 lists the parameters to add custom roles to an organization.

Table 1: Parameters to Add Roles

Role Select an access level for the user group:

See Predefined User Roles Overview for details on privileges of each role.
