Thanks for sharing your feedback!
Permissions are the building blocks for Axonius Role Based Access Control (RBAC). Each role consists of a collection of permissions for various elements in the system. Each user is assigned to a specific role.
Each role consists of the following categories and each category consists of different set of permissions.
The table below describes the behavior for each category and permission.
Absence of permissions for specific items may mean that elements in the system are not displayed, or disabled, depending on the definitions of that permission.
