Roles
Roles are used for setting user permissions for Dynamic Content users. We provide a standard set of roles that can be assigned at three levels: organization, hub and repository.
Roles are replacing personas for granting Dynamic Content user permissions. If you currently use personas to set permissions, please contact your Customer Success Manager or Amplience Support about migrating to our more flexible role-based permissions.
Using the account management panel, your organization administrator uses roles to set permissions.
Organization rolesLink copied!
Organizations have at least one administrator who assigns roles. By default users are assigned the member role.
| Role | Description |
|---|---|
| Member | Has read-only access to an organization's content |
| Admin | Has edit access allowing them to invite users to an organization and manage user permissions for hubs and repositories in that organization |
If you are the organization administrator, you can change a member's assigned organization role.
