Role Management APIs

Overview of the role management APIs.

You can use the following role management APIs to work with roles:

Note: Alternatively, you can use the User Management application to assign roles to users. For more information, see User Management.
Important: While naming a role, remember the following rules:
  • The length of the role name must not exceed 128 characters.
  • The role name can contain letters (both upper and lower case), numbers, and special characters such as $, &, @, and _.
  • Prefix the role name with ROLE_, if you are going to use it along with client credentials. For more information, see Obtaining access tokens with client credentials grant type.
  • The role name must not be the same as the Reltio System Role names. For example, ROLE_API or ROLE_USER. For more information on system roles, see 2023.2.1.0 weekly release notes | 03-Jul-2023.

Some best practices while naming roles:

  • It is a good practice to start the role name with ROLE_.
  • Use uppercase while naming roles, with _ as a delimiter. For example, ROLE_PROFILE_VIEWER, ROLE_DATA_STEWARD, and so on.
