# Role Based Access Control (RBAC)
Aporia supports full role based access control. Using account-level and workspace-level permissions, users will only have access to the data and actions for which they are permitted.
## Aporia roles & permissions
### Account level roles
An **`account`** is the highest level entity in Aporia and represents your company/organization.
Every user in Aporia must be associated with an **`account`**. There are two types of roles at the **`account`** level:
| Account Role | Permissions |
| -------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| account.admin | Account admins can manage users (invite new users & update their associated permissions/roles). Account admins are admins of all workspaces in their account (top-down inheritance). |
| account.member | Account members (the default permission of a user) can access the Aporia platform in your organization's account. |
An **`account.admin`** may create multiple **`workspaces`** within your Aporia **`account`.**
### Workspace level roles
A **`workspace`** is a silo created for separate teams. Each **`workspace`** represents a team/group within your organization and acts as an independent entity, i.e. a workspace encapsulate models, dashboards, monitors, etc. and these entities are ***not*** shared between workspaces.
There are three types of roles at the **`workspace`** level:
| Workspace Role | Permissions |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| workspace.admin |
Manage user permissions of existing workspace users and ability to invite existing account members to the respective workspace. Edit & view permissions across all Aporia entities within the workspace, i.e. models, versions, dashboards, monitors, segments, & metrics.
|
| workspace.editor | Edit & view permissions across all Aporia entities within a workspace, i.e. models, versions, dashboards, monitors, segments, & metrics. |
| workspace.viewer | View-only permissions for all entities in the workspace. |
## Roles management
#### Via Aporia platform
As an account admin you can manage roles as follows:
1. Log in to the Aporia platform
2. Go to the `Teams` page
3. Manage your account and workspace level permissions by adding, removing, and editing roles.
