Add users and roles add-users-and-roles
Many features in Cloud Manager require specific permissions to use. For example, only certain users are allowed to set the key performance indicators (KPIs) for a program. These permissions are logically grouped into roles.
Cloud Manager currently defines four roles for users, which govern the availability of specific features:
- Business Owner
- Program Manager
- Deployment Manager
- Developer

The following table summarizes the roles in Cloud Manager.
Create a profile using the Admin Console using-admin-console-to-create-a-profile
Cloud Manager roles are managed from the Admin Console. Specific role memberships are provided by adding the user to a Cloud Manager product profile.
The Admin Console is a central location for managing your Adobe entitlements across your entire organization. To learn more about the Adobe Admin Console, see Admin Console.
An administrator must create new product profiles under the AEM Managed Services Product Context to assign role-based permissions for Cloud Manager users, corresponding to each of the four Cloud Manager roles.
- Business Owner
- Deployment Manager
- Developer
- Program Manager
You can create or add users or groups to these product profiles with the Admin Console.
