The Nabis platform adopts a roles and permissions model to help you manage access control for your organization. Users are assigned roles that determine what they can and cannot do within the Nabis portal. Each role has a set of permissions that define the actions associated users can perform. In addition to the default roles provided by Nabis, you can create custom roles to give your staff members more granular access tailored to your organization's needs.

## Pre-defined roles
Your organization may have predefined roles available that you can assign to your users. You cannot delete these roles.
| Role name | Description |
| --- | --- | 
| Organization admin | Grants users all permissions, including the ability to manage other users. |
| Analytics user | Grants access to all analytics dashboards. |

## Custom roles
Creating custom roles allows you to granularly select permissions for specific users. Consider creating custom roles if none of the pre-defined roles adequately fit the needs of your organization. As new features are released, you may need to revisit your role settings to ensure the assigned permissions are up to date.

You can assign multiple roles to a user. They will inherit all permissions across all assigned roles.
{% /callout %}
