Permission sets for product roles

Permission sets are a collection of product specific settings and permissions that precisely define the various actions that users can perform while using BrowserStack products. They allow administrators to finetune and manage the functional access of different user groups, ensuring that each user can only perform the specific actions that they are authorized to do depending on their product roles. This level of control allows for customization based on your organization’s needs and enhances security.

Understanding permission sets

Whenever a user is assigned a product role, the corresponding permission set for that role will be automatically enforced whenever they use the specific product. At present, permission sets are exclusively applicable to products that support Product roles.
