A role represents a set of privileges to access secure
MDM Hub
resources. You assign a user a role in order for that user to gain privileges.
You can use the Roles tool in the
Security Access Manager
workbench to assign roles to users and user groups. The roles assigned to a user or user group determine the resource privileges of a user or user group. You cannot assign privileges to users directly.
The
Security Access Manager
enforces resource authorization for requests from external application users. Administrators and data stewards who use the
Hub Console
to access
MDM Hub
resources are not affected by resource privileges to the same extent.
