Understanding Roles

Role permissions are demonstrated on the “Admin” page. To access the InSkill Manage Portal a user must have the Expertise role assigned to their user profile. By default, the Author, Helpdesk Expert, and Administrator roles have access to the Expertise Role.

The following are InSkills Core Roles.

Core roles are roles in InSkill that cannot be edited. Core roles are provided by InSkill for your convenience and cover the most common usage patterns. New Roles can be created and are added by clicking “+ Add New” at the top right corner of the page

The new role created requires a name and permissions for the account. The permissions that can be granted to the new role can be seen in the following.
