Manage users' roles in Magic
Roles are defining each user's access level to your system.
You can create more roles based on your system's logic and requirements. It is also possible to edit or delete the predefined roles on your system.
New roles
You can define new roles in your Magic environment. To do so, follow the simple steps listed below.
1- Navigate to "Users & roles" page.
2- In the Roles panel, right side of your screen, click on the little "plus button".
3- In the popup dialog, give a unique title to the role. You will later use this title to assign it to the users on your system.
4- Provide a brief description for this role, so later you know what access rights are associated with this role.
5- Click on the Create button and wait for the success message to be appeared on your screen.
There are a few points you need to know:
* Roles are an agreement defined in your system. So, the roles you create and the way you use them in your system will specify the access rights. For instance, you create a role and name it "Operator", then for each endpoint you create, you can specify which endpoint can be accessed (each operation individually) by "Operator". This way, you will specify the list of roles in your system and manage their access rights accordingly.
* Name of the new roles cannot be duplicated compared to the existing roles.
