Adding the 'creator' Role

...

The Default 'globalAPIPublisher' Role

Note the The "globalAPIPublisher" role already is defined out-of-the-box when you log -in to into the API Manager Web console. This role enables an API publisher to view APIs that are private to other API publishers.For example, say a user by the name 'testuser' is assigned the 'publisher' role created in the previous section. testuser can view private APIs of other publishers only if those APIs are shared with the 'publisher' role. This is set by editing the visibility field of an API by an API developer. However, if testuser is assigned the "globalAPIPublisher" role in addition to the 'publisher' role, he/she can view and publish APIs that are private to other API publishers irrespective of what roles the 'visibility' of those APIs are set for by developers. Through the "globalAPIPublisher" role, all API publishers can access and manage a shared pool of APIsprovides both API creation and publication permissions. Hence once a user assigned to this role,he/she could do both API creation and publishing tasks.
