Assign user groups to user roles

After importing a group, you must assign at least one user role to it. This grants the role's permissions to the group members. If you don't assign a role, the users in this group have no permissions.

Before you begin:

Before assigning roles to groups, you must Import user groups from external directory services.

If you are not using the default roles (which are described in User permissions and user roles) or any custom roles that you previously created, then you must Create user roles and Assign permissions to roles.

  1. In the console, on the Access control page, click the User roles tab.
  2. Click the role you want to add the user group to.
  3. Click Member groups. In the Group name field, select the user group you want to add to the user role.
  4. Click Add group, and commit changes.
  5. Repeat to assign roles to other imported groups.
