User groups and permissions

This article explains how access control works using user groups and permissions.

Portal uses a group-based permission model to scale access management across users and applications.

Permission model

• Users inherit permissions from all groups they belong to.

• Platform permissions and application permissions are managed separately.

Step-by-step

1. Open User Groups
   Go to Users & Groups → User Groups.

2. Select or create a group
   Choose an existing group (for example Admins) or create a new one.

3. Manage group members
   Add or remove users from the group.

4. Configure platform permissions
   Define which platform-level actions the group can perform (for example user management, streaming, session management).

Notes

• Platform permissions do not automatically grant application access.

• Users can belong to multiple groups at the same time.
