Default roles

This page displays the permissions included for each default role in Orchestrator.

You can view and edit the permissions for each role from the Roles page by clicking the More Actions icon on the right end of a row.

If a role cannot be edited, you have the option to duplicate and customize it as a new role instead (not available for mixed roles).

Administrator role

A role that has all tenant- and folder-level permissions.

This is a mixed role and includes both tenant and folder permissions. With mixed roles, for a global operation, only the user's tenant permissions are taken into consideration; for a folder-specific operation, if a custom role is defined, folder permissions are applied in favor of any tenant permissions present.

It includes the following permissions, which cannot be changed.

Folder permissions



Robot role

Important:

This role is no longer available for new tenants. To replicate its permissions, use the following role combination:

  • Allow to be Automation User at the tenant level

  • Automation User at the folder level

The Robot role can still be used in any existing tenants.

All permissions required to execute processes.

This is a mixed role and includes both tenant and folder permissions.
