Administration User Security Roles

Overview

Security Roles govern exactly what a specific configured Administration User is allowed to see and do within the Symbee Connect Administration Portal. Commonly known as Roles based Access Control (or RBAC).

Each administration user can be assigned either one or multiple roles (see here). When a user is assigned multiple security roles, the user is allowed to see and do the super-set of all functions and actions configured on each assigned role.

The Default Security Roles

During initial Symbee Connect sign up, your company is preconfigured with six different security roles (Administrator being the highest level, and providing access to everything). With the exception of the Administrator role, all other roles are fully customizable and can be modified, renamed, duplicated to provide additional or different roles, or can be completely deleted to meet your access control requirements.

The six default security roles provide a suggested initial setup to get you started - a general summary for each preconfigured role is provided below:

Administrator

Highest level of access. An Administrator can perform all functions, including adding new Environments, configuration of all integration aspects, administering Channel Configurations, configuring Flow Controls, administering end users, and also administering other Administration Portal users.

The Administrator role cannot be modified, renamed, or deleted

This role provides the means of access to new Symbee Connect features as they get released by default. An Administrator always gets access to all functionality (existing and new).
When new features are added that require administrative access or configuration (Functions or Actions) they are always enabled by default on this Administrator role, but are then disabled by default on all other Security Roles configured in your Company. Your Administrators can then control what other security roles (and therefore people) should get access to new Functions and Actions.

Operator

Can perform all the functions an Administrator can, except adding new Environments, configuring new Flow Controls, adding or deleting Channel Configurations (existing Channel Configurations can be maintained). Operators can not administer other Administration Portal users.

Contact Center Supervisor
