Manage user access through Permissions manage-user-access
Manage permissions and user access to individual components within Real-Time CDP Collaboration through the Experience Cloud Permissions interface. Permissions allows system and product administrators to define roles to manage user access to specific features and resources.
Configure access to Permissions permissions-access
To access Permissions, you must have both product administrator and user access to the 51ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Experience Platform product. A system administrator is required to configure product administrator privileges, while user privileges can be configured by a system or product administrator. For more information on the administrative roles, read the access control heirarchy guide.

Administrators: configure Experience Platform UI access product-access
In Real-Time CDP Collaboration, administrators and end users will be working with data from Experience Platform, such as audiences and audit logs. This data is held within instances of Experience Platform called sandboxes. To ensure users can interact with this data, you need to assign default roles to the user.
To begin, navigate to . You should now see Experience Platform and Permissions inside of Quick access.
At this stage, you can now access Permissions. If you try to access Experience Platform, you’ll get a warning that no sandboxes are enabled, as shown below. To solve this, you need to assign the default roles to your user. To begin, select Permissions.
The Permissions dashboard will display. Select Users from the left panel and then select the user’s name.
Select the Roles tab and then select Add roles.
The Add Roles dialog appears. Select Default Production All Access and Sandbox Administrators and then select Save.
You now have access to Experience Platform and Permissions. In the final step, you’ll grant access to Real-Time CDP Collaboration.
Administrators: configure Real-Time CDP Collaboration access RTCDP-collaboration-access
To grant users access to Real-Time CDP Collaboration, you’ll use an access control concept called roles. Roles define the level of access a administrator or user has to resources in your organization.
When configuring individual access to Real-Time CDP Collaboration, you’ll assign users’ roles containing permissions from the Collaborations resource. You can use the manage roles guide to find out information on:
- the two standard roles and the levels of access they grant to Real-Time CDP Collaboration
- creating custom roles using the Collaboration resource
- the list of permissions included in the Collaborations resource
Once you’ve chosen or created a role that encompasses the level of access your user needs, you need to assign the user to that role.
Assign a role
You may assign multiple roles to a single user or assign multiple users to a single role. The first case was covered earlier when assigning the default roles to give a user access to Experience Platform. In the next steps, you’ll assign users directly to the role you’ve selected.
In Permissions select Roles from the left panel and then select your role from the list.
The role’s detail page displays. Select the Users tab and then select Add Users.
The Add Users dialog appears. Select the user(s) from the list and then select Save.
The user should now see RTCDP Collaboration listed as a product under Quick Access in Experience Cloud.
Next Steps
Now that users have access to Real-Time CDP Collaboration, they can begin using the product. To learn more about the product as a whole, read the overview guide.
