# Roles This section explains the available roles in the NVIDIA Run:ai platform. A role is a set of permissions that can be assigned to a [subject in a scope](/self-hosted/2.20/platform-management/aiinitiatives/adapting-ai-initiatives.md#scopes-in-an-organization). A permission is a set of actions (View, Edit, Create and Delete) over a NVIDIA Run:ai entity (e.g. projects, workloads, users). ## Roles Table The Roles table can be found under **Access** in the NVIDIA Run:ai platform. The Roles table displays a list of roles available to users in the NVIDIA Run:ai platform. It is not possible to create additional roles or edit or delete existing roles. ![](/files/9x3qtYH0ak8iml1iq5AH) The Roles table consists of the following columns: | Column | Description | | ------------- | --------------------------------------- | | Role | The name of the role | | Created by | The name of the role creator | | Creation time | The timestamp when the role was created | ### Customizing the Table View * Filter - Click ADD FILTER, select the column to filter by, and enter the filter values * Search - Click SEARCH and type the value to search by * Sort - Click each column header to sort by * Column selection - Click COLUMNS and select the columns to display in the table * Download table - Click MORE and then Click Download as CSV. Export to CSV is limited to 20,000 rows. ## Reviewing a Role 1. To review a role click the role name on the table 2. In the role form review the following: * **Role name**\ The name of the role * **Entity**\ A system-managed object that can be viewed, edited, created or deleted by a user based on their assigned role and scope * **Actions**\ The actions that the role assignee is authorized to perform for each entity * **View** - If checked, an assigned user with this role can view instances of this type of entity within their defined scope * **Edit** - If checked, an assigned user with this role can change the settings of an instance of this type of entity within their defined scope * **Create** - If checked, an assigned user with this role can create new instances of this type of entity within their defined scope * **Delete** - If checked, an assigned user with this role can delete instances of this type of entity within their defined scope ## Roles in NVIDIA Run:ai NVIDIA Run:ai supports the following roles and their permissions. Under each role is a detailed list of the actions that the role assignee is authorized to perform for each entity.

Permitted workloads

When assigning a role with either one, all or any combination of the View, Edit, Create and Delete permissions for workloads, the subject has permissions to manage not only [NVIDIA Run:ai workloads](https://github.com/run-ai/runai-product-docs/blob/v2.20/infrastructure-setup/authentication/broken-reference/README.md) (Workspace, Training, Inference), but also a list of 3rd party workloads: * k8s: StatefulSet * k8s: ReplicaSet * k8s: Pod * k8s: Deployment * batch: Job * batch: CronJob * [machinelearning.seldon.io](http://machinelearning.seldon.io): SeldonDeployment * [kubevirt.io](http://kubevirt.io): VirtualMachineInstance * [kubeflow.org](http://kubeflow.org): TFJob * [kubeflow.org](http://kubeflow.org): PyTorchJob * [kubeflow.org](http://kubeflow.org): XGBoostJob * [kubeflow.org](http://kubeflow.org): MPIJob * [kubeflow.org](http://kubeflow.org): MPIJob * [kubeflow.org](http://kubeflow.org): Notebook * [kubeflow.org](http://kubeflow.org): ScheduledWorkflow * [amlarc.azureml.com](http://amlarc.azureml.com): AmlJob * [serving.knative.dev](http://serving.knative.dev): Service * [workspace.devfile.io](http://workspace.devfile.io): DevWorkspace * [ray.io](http://ray.io): RayCluster * [ray.io](http://ray.io): RayJob * [ray.io](http://ray.io): RayService * [tekton.dev](http://tekton.dev): TaskRun * [tekton.dev](http://tekton.dev): PipelineRun * [argoproj.io](http://argoproj.io): Workflow

## Using API Go to the [Roles](https://run-ai-docs.nvidia.com/api/2.20/authentication-and-authorization/roles) API reference to view the available actions. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://run-ai-docs.nvidia.com/self-hosted/2.20/infrastructure-setup/authentication/roles.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
