Roles for a User
The Identity Hub supports Role Based Access Security (RBAC) for applications and services that authenticate using The Identity Hub.
Roles can flow from the Account Providers (assigned to Users) via The Identity Hub to the Apps. Roles can also be assigned in The Identity Hub UI unrelated to the Roles received from Account Providers.
For more info see Roles
