Overview
In the Administration → User roles section roles that can be assigned to system users and specific permissions for each role are maintained.
Default user roles
By default, Zabbix is configured with four user roles, which have a pre-defined set of permissions:
Admin role
Guest role
Super admin role
User role
Default Super admin role cannot be modified or deleted, because at least one Super admin user with unlimited privileges must exist in Zabbix.
Zabbix users with type Super admins and proper permissions can modify or delete existing roles or create new custom roles.
To create a new role, click on the Create user role button at the top right corner. To update an existing role, press on the role name to open the configuration form.
Available permission options along with default permission sets for pre-existing user roles in Zabbix are described below.
