By default, WSO2 IoTS includes a set of roles. These default roles and permissions have been explained in the following subsections.

Default user roles

The following roles are available by default in WSO2 IoTS:

• admin - Role assigned to the super tenant administrator by default.

  If you are defining the permissions for an IoTS administrator who needs to perform operations and configure policies, make sure to select admin. The admin permission allows the user to perform operations and configure policies for devices.
