### New role: IXP Project Creator

The new **IXP Project Creator** role grants the **Project - Create** permission, which lets a user create IXP projects in the tenant without a service or organization administrator role. The user who creates a project becomes project admin of that project automatically.

For more details, check the following resources:
* [Managing projects](https://docs.uipath.com/ixp/automation-cloud/latest/overview/managing-projects)
* [Managing access](https://docs.uipath.com/ixp/automation-cloud/latest/overview/managing-access#permissions)

### New project permissions for custom roles

Custom roles can now include four tenant-level project permissions: **Project - Create**, **Project - Read**, **Project - Write**, and **Project - Delete**. Each one applies to every project in the tenant.

### Administrators group added to new projects by default

New IXP projects, both Communications Mining and Unstructured and Complex Documents, now include the **Administrators** group as **IXP Project Admin** from the moment they are created. This aligns IXP with the rest of the UiPath® platform, where organization administrators have access to new resources by default.

For more details, check the following resources:
* [Managing projects](https://docs.uipath.com/ixp/automation-cloud/latest/overview/managing-projects)
* [Access control for group-based project roles](https://docs.uipath.com/ixp/automation-cloud/latest/overview/access-control-for-group-project-roles)
