In Elium there is a distinction between the generic role of the users (system role), independent of their affiliation to spaces, and a specific role per space.

The combination of the system role and the role in the space grants the user certain rights.

All Elium users, whatever their role, have universal rights.

Discover in the section "Adding Users" how to add one or several users as well as all the setting related to the users.
