Question & Answer


Question

User roles that are required to access tools

Answer

The tools that are available in the Watson Experience Manager depend on the user role that is assigned for the user. The administrator of Experience Manager defines the user roles for a user.? A user can have multiple roles and can access only the tools and areas that apply to the roles they are assigned.? When you click on a tool that you do not have access to you receive a message to contact your administrator.
