Get to know Role Sets - Access Levels

Understanding Permissions and Access Levels in iluminr.

Understand each Access Level control and the capability it changes for a user in a given role set.

In the world of iluminr, managing access and permissions is crucial for maintaining the security and efficiency of operations. The management of this is primarily handled through the concept of Role Sets and Access Levels.

Role Sets in iluminr are foundational to managing people within the platform. They dictate what action plans a user can see and enable administrators to exert control over various permissions.

The access levels within iluminr are broadly categorised into two types:

Functional access deals with what a user can interact with in iluminr, while Data access determines the data a user can view or modify.
