Custom Roles

As a workspace administrator, you can create new roles and assign specific permissions to them in your workspace.

{% hint style="info" %} For Rocket.Chat workspaces on version 6.x.x and above, creating new roles and editing custom role permissions are exclusively accessible to workspaces subscribed to the Enterprise plan. {% endhint %}

To create a new role,

• Navigate to Administration > Workspace > Permissions.
• Click on New role.
• A side panel opens. Provide the details required:
  • Role: Name of the role.
  • Description: Set a description of the role.
  • Scope: Select the scope of the role.
  • Users must use Two Factor Authentication: Users assigned to this role are prompted for 2FA code.
• Click Save.

To assign permissions to a role, select the corresponding permission checkbox under the role.
