Unity Asset Manager roles and permissions build on the default user types that users have within your Unity Cloud Organization for viewing and managing Unity Cloud projects. They can be broken into two main areas.
To manage projects or users then you will need an Organization or project user type. for example, Organization Owner or Project Owner.
To manage assets you will need an Asset Manager Organization or Project role.
Unity Cloud User Types
To add users to your Organization, you will need either an Org Owner or Org Manager Organization user type. An Org Owner or Manager can give those users any user type or role they want as part of this process.
If you want someone to have control or access to projects but not access to your whole Organization then assign them a project role. Project Owner or Managers can add or remove users in a project and Project Users can only get access to a Unity Cloud project.
For information about managing your role and permissions in Unity Cloud, see Roles and Permissions.
