Create and assign privileges to a role to customize how users can interact with each SystemLink application and service.

A role is any set of permissions you want to assign to a group of users or services. There is no limit to the number of roles in a workspace, for a user, or for a service. You can use the same role in multiple workspaces.

  1. In the SystemLink web application, click Access Control » Roles.
  2. Click Create Role.
  3. Enter a name for the role.
  4. On the Privileges tab, under Applications and services, select the application or service you want to assign privileges for.
    Assign the minimum number of privileges that users need to perform their work. Assigning the minimum number of privileges helps you maintain security.
  5. Check the box for each privilege type you want the role to have.
    Note Checking Allow all privileges grants this role any new privileges included in future versions of SystemLink Enterprise.
  6. Click Create.
  7. Repeat steps 3–5 for each application or service this role interacts with.
    It can take up to 5 minutes for privilege changes to take effect.
After you configure a role, assign users or analysis routines in any workspace to the role. You can modify roles at any time.
