Create a Role in Control Center

A Control Center admin can create roles that apply to a subset of Control Center users. Roles can make configuration more flexible. This topic applies to B2C Commerce.

1. Log in to Control Center.
2. Click Roles > New Role.
3. Enter a name for the role and click Save. The role is added to the Roles view.
4. Select the newly added role. A page opens with tabs to Add Instances and Users.
5. In the Add Instances tab, add the role to one or more instances. The Select Instances slider opens, which lists all the realms in your organization. Each instance is individually selectable.

   To select all sandbox instances instead of individually selecting them, select the All Sandboxes pseudo instance. This option indicates to the system that you want the same permissions to apply to all sandbox instances in the realm. The All Sandboxes pseudo instance applies to any future sandboxes that you create in the realm.

   • Select one or more instances in one or more realms, and click Add. The instance is now available on the Instances tab, organized by realm.
   • For each instance, you can grant these permissions for the role:
     • Reset–A user can initialize an instance using Reset. You can only grant this permission for SIG sandboxes, not PIG instances.
     • Start/Stop–A user can stop, start, and restart an instance.
     • View Statistics–A user can view usage statistics for an instance.
     • Grant Permissions–The user can give other users permissions for the instance. Users can only grant permissions currently granted to them; they can't grant permissions they don't have.
6. Assign users to the role.
   • Click Users > Add Users. In the Users slider, there are two tabs:
     • Inside Organization–Lists all Control Center admins or users in Account Manager for your organization.
     • Outside Organization–Lists individuals outside your organization that you work with, and want them to have Control Center access. For example, an individual in an implementation partner's organization, or if you're an implementation partner, and you want to specify individuals in the client's organization.
7. (Optional) On the Inside Organization tab, select one or more users to assign to the role, and click Add.
8. (Optional) On the Outside Organization tab, add a user external to the organization. Before you can add an outside user, grant that user Control Center Administrator or the Control Center User role in Account Manager.
   • On the Outside Organization tab, enter the user's email address, then select the user. If you don't see the user in the list, the email address isn't valid.
   • Click Add. This address becomes the outside user's login credential for Account Manager.
