# User roles

{% hint style="info" %}
**Feature availability**

The Snyk free subscription plan allows you to send up to 200 pending invitations every seven days and has only administrator roles.

Enterprise plans have administrators, viewers, collaborators, and custom roles.

For more information, see [plans and pricing](https://snyk.io/plans/).
{% endhint %}

Snyk supports role-based access control (RBAC). Permissions are granted to users according to their role.

Snyk Enterprise plan customers can [manage user roles](/platform-administration/user-management/user-role-management.md), [change the role of a user](/platform-administration/user-management/user-role-management.md#change-the-role-of-a-user) in the Snyk Web UI, or [update member roles using the Snyk API](/platform-administration/user-management/user-management-with-the-api/update-member-roles-using-the-api.md).

When you create or edit a role, as explained on the [User role management](/platform-administration/user-management/user-role-management.md) page, the Web UI displays a list of permissions you can associate with each role. For more information, see [Pre-defined user roles](/platform-administration/user-management/pre-defined-roles.md).

There are many considerations involved in managing user roles. See these sections on the [User role management](/platform-administration/user-management/user-role-management.md) page:

* [Permissions (role) required to edit Project attributes from the Snyk CLI](/platform-administration/user-management/user-role-management.md#permissions-required-to-edit-project-attributes-from-the-snyk-cli)
* [Essential information for working with Member roles](/platform-administration/user-management/user-role-management.md#essential-information-for-working-with-member-roles)

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.snyk.io/platform-administration/user-management/user-roles.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
