How user permissions work

There are two categories of user permissions, account-level and profile-level. Existing users can view their permission settings and other information from User Settings.

Account-level permissions

Account-level permissions pertain to the management of the account, site scans, and profiles. The following table describes the available account-level permissions:

Permission	Description
Manage Account	Enables the user to assign account-level permissions for other users.
Manage Profiles	Enables the user to create, manage, and rename profiles for this account.
Manage Site Scans	Enables the user to run and delete site scans. All users can view site scans.
Manage JavaScript Code Extensions	Enables the user to edit JavaScript code extensions set up in the account. This permission applies to the JavaScript Code extension, not the Advanced JavaScript Code extension.

Profile-level permissions

Profile-level permissions are assigned using one of the following three methods:

All Current and Future Profiles
Use this option for Admin users or any user that requires access to all profiles for the account, including those that will be created in the future.
Select from Currently Assigned Profile(s)
Use this option to filter the available profiles to only those that the user is currently assigned. Select the profiles assigned from the Profile List.
Select Profile(s)
Use this option to edit permissions for the selected profiles in the Profile List.

The following table describes the available profile-level permissions:

Permission	Description
Manage Users	Add, edit, and remove users and their permissions for this profile.
Manage Tag Templates	Edit and delete all tag templates for this profile
Manage Resource Locks	Apply and manage resource locks for variables, tags, load rules, and extensions.
Save Existing Versions	Perform a Save for this profile, which overwrites the existing configuration of the version with the new configurations. Apply labels to variables, tags, load rules, and extensions. Note: Ensure that users with this permission understand the difference between performing a Save and a Save As.
Save As New Versions	Perform a Save As for this profile.
JavaScript Draft Promotion	Promote drafts in the Advanced JavaScript Code extension to be published to Dev, QA, or Prod.
Publish to Dev Environment	Publish to the Dev environment and any custom environments added to this profile. Required to publish to custom publish environments.
Publish to QA Environment	Publish to the QA environment.
Publish to Prod Environment	Publish to the Prod environment.
