Assigning User Roles to User Groups and Users

Users get the roles of the user groups they belong to automatically. In addition, roles can also be assigned to users directly. A user's roles are shown in Users > User Roles. If a role has been received through a user group, the user group is shown in the Received from Group column.

You can assign user roles to several user groups at the same time in the User Roles view or one group at a time in the User Groups view, and for several users at the same time the User Roles view or one user at a time in the Users view.
