Users access platform areas and actions based on their roles, known as role-based access control (RBAC). Torq offers preset roles: viewer, operator, creator, contributor, and owner, each corresponding to typical organizational responsibilities. Roles are workspace-specific, meaning a user's role is defined separately for each workspace they belong to.
