Security Roles and Contact Roles

There are several types of roles: security roles and contact roles.

*
Security roles control the actions users can perform in a community. Security roles can be grouped into these categories:
*
Community security roles—Include permissions related to the community as a whole; for example, the Community Administrator or Everyone role. Default roles are available, and custom roles can be created.
*
Project security roles—Include permissions related to all projects or permissions for a specific project; for example, the Project Owner or Participant role.

For default role descriptions, see “Community Security Roles” and “Project Security Roles” .

*
Contact (business) roles describe a contact's functional role in an organization. One default role is provided, Contact (see “Contact (Business) Roles” ).
