Assign predefined roles to users and groups in the Adobe Admin Console, remove them, and manage the permissions each role includes.
Assign predefined roles to give users and groups the access they need in the Adobe Admin Console. System admins can assign and manage all roles, while product admins manage roles for their products. Users can be assigned multiple roles, and their permissions are combined across all assigned roles.
Tip: Creating role-based user groups
Before assigning roles, plan your user management strategy and create or update users and user groups accordingly. Roles can only be assigned to existing users or groups, so ensure they’re set up first using your preferred user management strategy.
For example, if you want to assign the Adobe Express Template Manager role to users A, B, and C, create a user group with those users to simplify the assignment.
Select Roles.
Use the Roles page to view and filter roles by type to audit specific role categories.
Select the Assign users icon next to the role.
Use the Add users to this role screen to add existing users or user groups.
Select Save.
You can review your users and their assigned roles in the Roles or Product Profile section of the Admin Console.
You can update or remove a user’s role assignments at any time.
In the Adobe Admin Console, go to Users > Roles.
Select the role you want to update.
Select the checkbox next to the users or user groups you want to remove and select Remove users.
In the confirmation dialog, select Remove users again to finalize the change.
The selected users or groups are unassigned from the role, and the changes are recorded in the audit log.
Note
Users don't receive email notifications when roles are updated. You must communicate any role changes directly.
Some predefined roles expose permissions you can toggle on or off. For example, Member and Educator.
In the Adobe Admin Console, go to Users > Roles.
Select the Quick view icon for the relevant role, then choose Edit.
In Permissions, turn the required toggles on or off.
Note
- You only see permission sets and permissions that are available to your organization.
- To grant access to Partner models, you must also grant Firefly access.
Select Save.
Changes apply immediately to all users and groups assigned to this role and are recorded in the audit log.
