Roles and permissions

The four governance roles, what each can do, and why your profile role grants nothing.

WhoEveryoneView as Markdown

Access in AMC comes from governance roles. There are four, in rank order. A user with no governance role shows as None.

RoleScope
Super AdminThe whole installation. Also the only role that can request in-app updates and revoke Super Admin or Tenant Admin.
Tenant AdminEverything in one organization: users, departments, email, sign-in, triggers, and all departments' work.
Department ManagerThe departments they manage: runs, interventions, budgets, overrides, golden runs, and department audit.
Agent ManagerThe agents they manage: register and run them, with read access to those agents' departments.

Super Admin can do everything in the table. Department Managers act only inside their own departments. Approving a budget override also depends on the approval tier; see Manage department budgets and overrides.

Departments decide what you see

Runs, interventions, ROI, and budgets are scoped to the departments you can access. If you have no department, you see only workflows that aren't assigned to one. Use the Department filter in the top bar to narrow every page to one department.
