Assign a Role and Permissions from the Users Screen

Assign your users a role and specific permissions from the Users screen in Marketing Cloud Engagement.

To assign a role to a user, you must meet one of these conditions.

  • Administrator role
  • Manage Roles permission enabled in Email permissions
  • Core, Advanced, or Enterprise 1.0 user with the Add Users to Account permission
  1. In the app switcher, hover over your name and click Setup.
  2. Click Users.
  3. Find the user and select the checkbox next to the name. Use the search field or page through the available options.
  4. Click Manage Roles.
  5. Select whether you assign the role directly to the user or in the context of a specific business unit in the Business Unit dropdown.
    This step applies only to Enterprise accounts. Roles assigned directly to users retain that role for all business units.
  6. Click Edit Roles. Select the checkbox next to the appropriate roles to assign.
  7. Click Save.
  8. To edit specific permissions for that user, click Edit Permissions and select the checkboxes next to permissions to assign.
  9. Click Save.
Warning
Warning Don’t assign all permissions to a user. All permissions assignment creates conflicts and makes features inaccessible.
