Roles and access control (ACL) rights
Information on managing roles and access control (ACL) rights in Designer.
Designer builds on ServiceNow's access control model; this gives ServiceNow admins the ability to assign specific access rights via roles to different users and groups.
Roles & Groups
Designer has the following roles:
- Designer Admin: Can assign roles, create, read and delete diagrams.
- Designer User: Can create, read and delete diagrams.
- Designer Reader: Can only read diagrams.
- Designer Commit: Commits changes to relationships and elements only.
