Roles and access control (ACL) rights

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.

The abilities of Designer roles and groups are summarized in the visual below:
