π How To Get Here
From the top menu, go to:
Main Menu β Admin βΒ Click on User Roles
π― What Is This Screen For?
The User Roles Settings screen allows you to:
-
Create reusable roles for guest users
-
Predefine default access permissions for each role
-
Avoid repetitive manual configuration by assigning the same role to multiple guest users.
π‘ Hints & Tips
-
Permissions Inheritance Is Additive:
The guest userβs final access rights are the combination of:-
Their individual guest settings, and
-
The permissions granted to their assigned role
π§ For example:
-
If a role grants access to 1 marketplace
-
And the guest user is individually granted access to 2 other marketplaces
β That user will have access to 3 marketplaces in total
-
-
Efficient Onboarding:
If most of your guest users share similar access requirements, assign them a pre-configured role to streamline onboarding. -
Granular Overrides:
-
If a few guests need extra permissions, update them individually from the Guest Access Settings screen.
-
However, you cannot remove permissions inherited from the role on the Guest Access screen.
-
β€ Instead, consider creating multiple roles with varied permissions to suit different guest types.
