Manage roles

Roles are permissions granted to users that allow them to access and manage organizations and projects with varying levels of privilege. Roles are divided into organization/project categories, and multiple roles can be assigned to a user. For example, a user with the role of an Org Admin can also hold a specific project member role. The role management features described in this document are only available to users who have been granted the relevant IAM roles.

info

The Org Owner is the user who applied to create the organization. The selected user account is assigned the roles of Org Admin and Billing Admin.
The Org Owner cannot be assigned through IAM roles but can be selected through the Org Owner transfer feature. The selected user will also receive the Org Admin and Billing Admin roles.
