Assigning Project Roles to Users and Groups

Users can be assigned roles within individual projects that are separate and unique from their system level roles. To assign a user(s) a specific project role there must first be a project created and the user must be assigned access on the project. 

Project roles must be applied to a group and users will inherit the roles based on their group membership. To create project level roles:

1. Open the project from the System dashboard or from the Project directory. 
2. From the project name drop down select Project settings.

1. Add the user(s) to the project. Reference the Add users to a project article if needed.
2. Create the role(s). Reference the Creating Project Roles article if needed. 
3. Navigate to the Groups tab near the top left and select Add.
4. Into the dialog box enter the name, and description (if necessary) of the group in the appropriate fields.
5. Select the project level role which will be assigned to each member of the group.
6. Add the users who will be members of this group and will receive the selected role.
