# Permissions

The ability to configure and create Workflow apps is determined by role based access control (RBAC):

In the new permissions model, the following project roles have full permissions to build, manage, and configure Workflow apps and Workflow apps portal settings:

  • Project admin
  • Advanced builder
  • Builder

In workspaces using the legacy permissions model, the Admin and Analyst system roles provide similar full access by default.

You can also assign granular Workflow apps permissions by creating a custom role in Workspace admin > Access control > Project roles. This allows you to separate the permissions for building and managing Workflow apps. For example, you can create a role that allows users to create Workflow apps, but prevents them from modifying Workflow apps portal settings. This guide describes the permissions necessary to perform the following tasks:

DATA TABLES PERMISSIONS

Access to Workflow apps also depends on the type of access your role has to data tables.
