In this article, you will learn how to assign and remove roles for users to manage their access to features within CluedIn.

Assign roles

After you add a user to CluedIn, you can give the user access to more features within the platform by adding other roles to the user.

You can assign roles to the users in two places within the platform:

• Administration > User Management > Users – this option is useful when you want to assign multiple roles to one user.

• Administration > Roles – this option is useful when you want to assign one role to multiple users.

The following diagram shows the flow of assigning roles to users.

Assign roles in Users

You can review the roles that are already assigned to the user and assign other roles in the Users section.

To assign roles to a user in the Users section
