Introduction

A role is a combination of one permission set and one or more application scopes. A user can have single or multiple roles. A role can be added, modified, or deleted. 


A permission set specifies a set of Aqua operations that can be performed by users with the associated role(s). See Permission Sets for more information.


An application scope specifies a set of system resources that can be accessed (viewed or edited) by users with the associated role(s). See Application Scopes for more information.
