How to configure roles and permissions for users

Learn how to change roles for users and configure custom permissions for each role.

Fello provides default user roles with certain permissions. You can choose to configure permissions for these default roles as your team’s requirements evolve and configure custom roles as well. Here’s how:

  1. Click on your Profile from the top-right corner and select Settings. 
  2. Navigate to the Users tab. 
  3. Click View under the Permissions column in the Roles and Permissions section

    You will now be able to see a list of all the permissions associated with that role and configure them as required.

    Note:  When you assign or modify a custom role for a user, the permissions that you configure will apply only to that user and not other users with custom roles.

Now, this user will be able to access Fello with the updated role and permissions.
