Adding Roles

With Role Management, you can manage access to Zscaler Client Connector Portal settings.

For ZIdentity-enabled tenants (that are linked to ZIdentity), admin roles must be assigned in the ZIdentity Admin Portal. To learn more, see About Administrative Entitlements.

The following three permissions are available when you add a role. You can also create a custom access level based on these permissions:

  • Full: View and configure settings.
  • View Only: View settings.
  • None: Setting is hidden.

To add a role:

  1. In the Zscaler Client Connector Portal, go to Administration > Administration Management.
  2. Click the Role Management tab.
  3. Click Add Role.
  1. In the Edit Admin Role window, provide information for the following fields:
    • Name: Enter a name for the role. The name you enter cannot contain special characters, except periods (.), hyphens (-), and underscores ( _ ).

    • Permissions allow you to control an admin’s access to Zscaler Client Connector Portal administration settings. You can choose one of the following permissions: Full, View Only, None, or Customize.

      For some settings, only View Only or None is available.

      Expand each section to display the settings under that section and choose the permission for the role you’re creating. When you choose Full, View Only, or None, that permission applies to the setting's entire section. When you choose Customize, you can select a mix of permissions for each setting.

      • On the Dashboard, admins can view data for all or specific users, all or specific device states, and all or specific operating systems. View Only is the default permission for the Dashboard and cannot be changed.
