User Roles

Currently, Cloudera Data Science Workbench has only one deployment-wide specialised user role: site administrator. All other roles are created within the scope of a particular team or project and do not affect the rest of the deployment.

Site Administrators

Site administrators are superusers who have complete access to all activity on the deployment. By default, the first user account that signs up for Cloudera Data Science Workbench becomes a site administrator. They can add/invite more users, disable existing users, assign site administrator privileges to others, and so on. For instructions, see Managing Your Personal Account.

Roles within Teams and Projects

Within the context of each team and project, users can be assigned Viewer, Operator, Contributor, or Admin roles. These roles are only applicable within the limited scope of the team/project. More details on the privileges associated with each of these roles are included in the Creating Teams and Project Collaborators topics respectively.
