Adding a Role

• Name: Enter a name for the role

• Description: Enter a custom description for the role

• Copy Permissions from an Existing Role: Select this option to copy permissions from another role on the network. Use the From Role dropdown list to select the role. If you don't enable this option, the custom role will have no permissions by default.

User Roles and Permissions

Administrators

The Administrators role gives you access to all the features offered on BSN.cloud. This is the only role that allows you to edit the account status of other users: as an administrator, you can add new users, delete existing users, and assign users to different roles. 

The first user of a bsn.cloud account will automatically be assigned to the Administrators role. If you are not the first user on your account, an administrator must assign this role to you. Only one administrator account is allowed per network in the free bsn.Control service, and the email address used to create that network is the administrator and cannot be changed. To add administrators or change the administrator to a different user/email, you must upgrade to bsn.Content.

Multiple administrators are allowed in our paid bsn.Content service. By default, the email address used to create the bsn.Content network is the first administrator on the network.
