About User Roles

Understand the two tiers of user roles in Tholos: organization-level and vault-level permissions.

Within Tholos, there are two tiers of user roles. This allows you to configure different role configurations based on your needs.

  1. Roles on the organization level
  2. Roles on the vault level

Each person within your organization will have one organization role. They will also have a role for each vault they are a part of.

For example: a user may have an Administrator role for the organization, have a Viewer role in Vault A, a Manager role in Vault B, an Initiator role in Vault C, and a Manager role in Vault D.

Organization Level Roles

These roles are for the entire organization.
