# Manage Permissions

In Citadel Radar, user permissions are managed with two types: Role Permissions and Resource Permissions.

Role Permissions control the operations a user can perform across Citadel Radar as a whole. Resource Permissions control the operations a user can perform for a specific application.

### Permission types

<table><thead><tr><th width="128.83984375">Permission</th><th width="266.02734375">Overview</th><th>Main use</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Role Permissions</td><td>Basic permissions granted to the account as a whole.</td><td>Common resource management such as user invitations, application creation, and Evaluation Libraries</td></tr><tr><td>Resource Permissions</td><td>Individual permissions configured per application.</td><td>Management of access rights to specific applications and operation permissions for those applications</td></tr></tbody></table>

{% hint style="info" %}
Role Permissions are specified by users with the Admin role [when creating user accounts](/en/administrator-guide/manage-accounts.md).

In addition, to grant access or operational permissions for specific applications, configure Resource Permissions for the target applications.
{% endhint %}

### Permission combination examples

By combining Role Permissions and Resource Permissions, you can adjust each user's area of responsibility.

<table><thead><tr><th>Scenario</th><th width="141.71875">Role permission</th><th width="184.109375">Resource permission</th><th>Expected user</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Use as an overall administrator</td><td>Admin</td><td>Full access<br>(granted by default)</td><td>A user who manages Citadel Radar as a whole, including user management, application management, and Evaluation Library management</td></tr><tr><td>Handle evaluation library and application creation</td><td>Editor</td><td>Edit or full access as needed</td><td>A user who manages Evaluation Metrics and Evaluation Packages and also handles application creation and configuration</td></tr><tr><td>Operate a specific application</td><td>Standard</td><td>Edit</td><td>A user who handles day-to-day operations such as configuration changes and log review for a specific application</td></tr><tr><td>Only review the status of a specific application</td><td>Standard</td><td>View</td><td>A user who reviews logs and evaluation results for a specific application but does not change settings</td></tr></tbody></table>

Role Permissions determine the range of operations that can be performed across Citadel Radar. Resource Permissions determine the range of operations that can be performed for a specific application.

This enables flexible access management based on user duties. For instance, users managing shared resources can be assigned the Editor role or higher, whereas users handling specific applications can be assigned the Standard role alongside the required resource permissions.

### Role permissions

Role Permissions are basic permissions granted to users.

They affect operations related to Citadel Radar as a whole, such as inviting users, creating applications, and managing common resources such as Evaluation Metrics.

For details, see the following page.

{% endcontent-ref %}

### Resource permissions

Resource Permissions are individual permissions configured per application.

Configuring Resource Permissions allows you to grant specific users access to and management over designated applications. For instance, this is useful when you want to restrict a user's view to a specific application or allow them to change its settings.
