Creating and Managing Roles
This section contains essential information and usage guidelines for managing roles and permissions inside Omnihubs.
What is Roles?
The Roles section allows administrators to create custom permission sets that define what team members can view, modify, or delete across different areas of the omnihubs platform.
This helps enforce access control, strengthen data security, and maintain workflow governance within your organization.
By using roles effectively, you can ensure that every team member only accesses what is necessary for their responsibilities.
