Role-Based Access Control

Navigate to Main menu > Admin > Access Control, the Roles tab enables you to manage access across the Ivanti Neurons Platform.

Roles

Configure the permissions of your members by assigning them one or more Roles.

The Neurons Platform comes with several pre-configured roles that cannot be changed. If these roles do not meet your needs, you can also create custom roles.

Space aware roles - The permissions are specific to each space, so you can assign roles to a specific space only. Examples are Device Management, App Management in a space. To learn more, refer to the Roles Management section in the Ivanti Neurons for MDM Administrator guide.

General roles - The permissions are, by nature, applicable to all roles. Examples are tenant-level settings such as MDM Certificates, App Catalog Settings.
