Instance Administrator Roles
Instance Administrator Roles define the privileges that control what users can access and manage in Blueprint Settings. Assigning a role to a user determines both their administrative capabilities and their resulting license type.
Navigate to Settings -> User Management -> Instance Administrator Roles.
Default Roles
One default role, "Default Instances Administrator", comes pre-configured when Blueprint is installed. This role grants full instance privileges to all projects and project data, and grants an "Author" license type.
