This includes the ability to create new Rivers and Connections, conduct thorough inspections and assessments of existing configurations, make modifications as necessary to optimize performance or meet changing requirements, and remove any outdated or redundant Rivers and Connections. Additionally, the role encompasses the function of managing Deployments, facilitating the transfer and synchronization of data and configurations across the various Environments assigned to this role.

    Viewer

    Primarily observational - focusing on monitoring Environment activity. It allows for comprehensive viewing and tracking of various entities, including Rivers and Connections.

    The perdmissions of each role are outlined in the table below:

    Please Note:

    In the "User Roles and Permissions" table, the "V" character represents that the specific role has the permission or capability mentioned in the corresponding row. For example, if there is a "V" under the "Admin" column and next to "Connections", it means that the Admin role has permissions related to "Connections".

    On the other hand, the "X" character indicates that the specific role does not have the permission or capability mentioned in the corresponding row. For example, if there is an "X" under the "Viewer" column and next to "Managing Users", it means that the Viewer role does not have permissions related to "Managing Users".
