Roles, Groups and Users

The Roles, Groups, and Users settings in SOTI Connect define how permissions and access levels are managed within the system.
Important:
  • SOTI Connect manages permissions through Roles. You cannot assign "General Permissions" directly to Groups or Users.
  • Groups and Users inherit permissions from their assigned Roles.

Roles

Roles determine the level of access a user has in SOTI Connect. You can view existing roles, assign users to roles, or create new roles as needed.

The following table describes the default user roles:
Administrator Has full administrative privileges. Users with this role can add, edit, and remove users of any role and create new roles.
Global User Has limited permissions and access to SOTI Connect features.
For detailed instructions on role management, see Managing Roles.

Groups

Groups are created and managed in SOTI Identity. You can assign roles to groups in SOTI Connect to automatically grant permissions to all users within the group.

Users

You can add or modify users in SOTI Connect and assign them to specific roles to define their access permissions.
Note: A user cannot have "Modify" permission without also having "Read" permission.

For detailed instructions on user management, see Managing Users.
