How to create User Roles and Permissions
This Guide will help you create user specific roles and permissions in LiveReach AI. By defining roles and assigning specific permissions, you can control access to features and data, ensuring that users have the appropriate level of access for their responsibilities. In this guide, we'll walk through the process of creating user roles and setting permissions.

Within Account Settings, Click on the Roles Tab.
Click the Create button to create a new role.
On this page, enter a Role name.
Pick the necessary permission rules for the role you are creating (Ex: viewing cameras, creating cases etc)
Optional : Select "Admin", if you need these users to have administrator privileges (i.e. all rules applied for admin).
Once you are finished configuring the role, click on next.

Each user account is associated with a role, and each role has specific permissions. Below are the different types of predefined roles with certain restrictions attached to them
Administrator roles have full access to the app, including access to all features & all of your locations in the LiveReach App.
Location roles only have access to an assigned location. For example, if you want users to only view cameras and access features relevant to their location, create a role called Location Managers and make sure to check "Location Role" when creating and choosing permissions. In the Users tab, you can assign the Location Managers role by clicking on edit (pencil icon), and you will be able to specify which location they will have access to.
