Article Summary

Panaya's Roles and Permissions console includes default Roles for you to select from. These roles were predefined with specific permissions by Panaya. The lists below display the permissions granted for each predefined Role.

Important!
You can change these predefined roles' assigned permissions, but note that it is impossible to revert to the default settings.  
Note
  • Assign Roles and permissions carefully to prevent project users from deleting content such as Cycles, Folders and Tests.
    Deleting Cycles and Folders cannot be restored.
  • You cannot modify permissions for the Administrator role. 
  • The Administrator Role has all permissions granted for a related project only.
  • The Administrator does not necessarily have access to view all projects.
  • If a user creates a project, he will be automatically assigned the Project Manager Role for the created project.
