This page is for PhixFlow administrators who need to assign roles, with their associated privileges, to user groups. It describes the role settings.

Overview

Roles represent the type of access required to do specific tasks in PhixFlow, for example, Designer, User, Administrator. Roles and user groups are linked, and user groups have privileges because of their roles. For more information about how users, user groups, roles and privileges are connected, see pages in the PhixFlow User Administration topic.
