Giving users access to a Watson Discovery instance
After you install and provision a Watson Discovery instance, you can share the URL for the product user interface with other people. However, those users can log in to the product user interface only if you give them access.
Before you can give someone access to a Watson Discovery instance, the person must have access to use IBM Cloud Pak® for Data itself. For more information, see Managing access to the platform.
The following table describes the service roles.
