Roles and Permissions
Admins use the members page in settings to manage members, assign roles and by that define permissions.

Manage Roles
With admin permissions, you can change the role of each member from your organization.
In the row of the member, click on the three dot menu in the last column of the table
Select Edit role
You can then select one of the three roles Admin, Normal, Operator
ENLYZE provides three user roles, each with different levels of access and responsibilities.
Admin
The Admin role is intended for users who need full management and troubleshooting capabilities. Admins can:
Manage members and invite new users.
Troubleshoot the IIoT infrastructure.
Support integration activities.
This role is best suited for managers, IT, and OT personnel who are responsible for system setup, maintenance, and overall administration.
Normal
The Normal role is designed for users who configure and manage the ENLYZE App’s operational features. Normal users can:
Configure the ENLYZE App.
Define metric calculations (e.g., OEE).
Create and adjust the downtime reason catalog.
Keep in mind that Normal users cannot invite new members. This role is ideal for process engineers, quality managers, and shift leaders.
Operator
The Operator role is intended for shopfloor workers who monitor production processes. Operators have limited access — they can view and use features that help them track and monitor production but cannot configure any settings in the ENLYZE App.
Assign this role to your shopfloor personnel who are involved in day-to-day operations.

Roles & Permissions in Grafana
When using the Grafana version hosted by ENLYZE, your ENLYZE roles are automatically mapped to the following Grafana roles:
Grafana Role Descriptions
Organization administrator: Has access to all organization resources, including dashboards, users, and teams.
Editor: Can view and edit dashboards, folders, and playlists.
Viewer: Can view dashboards, playlists, and query data sources.
You can find a more detailed description of the roles in the Grafana documentation.

Custom Permissions
While roles cannot be modified directly in Grafana, permissions can be customized at the folder, playlist, or dashboard level. This gives you full flexibility to deviate from the default role mapping schema outlined above.
This allows you to:
Grant specific users access to individual dashboards
Restrict access to sensitive data
Create custom permission structures that match your organization's needs
Change Permissions for specific Dashboards and Folders
If you want to customize access and permissions, follow these instructions:
The permissions management interface is the same for a folder and a dashboard. The first part of the permissions management defines what each role can do. Each dashboard and folder has the same default permissions:
You can modify the permissions for Editor and Viewer to the standard View, Edit, and Admin permissions. You can alos delete a role this will then fully revoke access.
You can add new permissions by clicking on Add a permission. This option allows you to define permissions for specific users, teams, and roles.
Create Teams to Manage Permissions
Grafana offers the option of creating teams of users. Teams are a best practice to manage permissions within Grafana at the folder and dashboard level.
To create a team in the side menu, go to Administration > Users and Access > Teams.
In the Grafana documentation, you can find a more detailed description of how teams work. This post offers additional information with best practices about how to organize permissions using teams.
