User role management

User roles define what different users are allowed to see and do inside Sally.

They help teams clearly separate responsibilities (for example administration vs. daily usage), reduce the risk of unintended changes, and keep account management clear and scalable as your organization grows.

Each user in Sally is assigned exactly one role, which determines their permissions across settings, users, licenses, and content.
