Modify access for a custom role

1. Change the Role Settings

1. Go to your Settings > Roles.

2. Find and click the role you want to update (e.g., JUICE_SHOP_APIS).

3. Search and select the list of API Collections you want to include in the role.

2. Assign a Permission Level (Optional)

1. Use the dropdown next to Guest (or the default permission) to choose the appropriate permission level.

2. This controls what actions role members can perform on the selected collections.

• If you want any new users invited under this role to automatically have these permissions, check the Default invite role option.

Best Practices & Tips

• Review Permissions: Before finalizing, confirm that the permission level is correct for each collection to avoid granting excessive access.

• Name Roles Clearly: If you manage multiple roles, use a clear naming convention (e.g., API-Only, View-Only, etc.) to distinguish them easily.

• Default Role: Be cautious when setting a default invite role—any newly invited user will automatically inherit those permissions.

This new feature streamlines role management by allowing you to pick exactly which collections each role can access.
