Configuring permissions for users in Provider account and multiple Standard accounts
To configure permissions for SOAR MSSP analyst users who have access to the Provider account and Standard accounts, create roles and groups in the Provider account, assign roles to groups, and add users to the groups, as required. If you do not use roles and groups, the permissions the users have are the same in the Provider account and Standard accounts.
Before you begin
The users must have been added to the SOAR application from the Provider account using the Refresh user list option on the Users tab from Application settings > Case Management > Permissions and access.
