The SXA security roles
The roles and permissions that you can set for SXA users
Security roles give your users different access rights to different areas of tenants and sites. Once you set up security for a tenant and site, SXA automatically adds the SXA Admin, SXA Author, and SXA Designer roles into the SXA domain. These roles inherit Sitecore roles and are used to base the following Tenant and Site roles on:
Tenant Member
Tenant Author
Tenant Designer
Tenant Admin
Site Member
Site Author
Site Designer
Site Admin
Note
To set up security for a tenant and a site, you must have version 1.3.1 of SXA.
