Cloud Portal, including the Admin Panel, Cloud Filter and Cloud Reporting, has different Roles that you can assign to users to grant them access to sets of features, functions, and data based on their position within your organisation. You should only assign your users the minimum access required to meet their needs.
- The areas you can give access to depend on your licence package.
- For Monitor, see: Monitor Roles and access permissions.
This article outlines the different Roles available, as well as what they previously allowed users to do before the release of User Access Management and what they now allow users to do.
