API Control Center Users

The Organization Control Center Users page displays a list of API Control Center Users. The API Control Center Users have role-based access to the resources such as API Definitions, Portal Access Groups, Packages, and Interactive Documentation in a specific Organization. Based on the roles, the users can view and modify the API Control Center resources on the Dashboard.

When an Organization is created, the following four user roles are created:
  • Administrator
  • API Manager
  • Community Manager
  • Reports User
Note: When the Organization or a Sub-Organization is created, only the above four roles are available to assign to the users. But after assigning the roles to the users, one could be an Administrator of a parent Organization or a Sub-Organization; or, an API Manager of a parent Organization or a Sub-Organization. Area Administrator is not assigned through the Control Center Users. However, the following table describes the functionality of the Area Administrator.
The following table describes the functionality of the users after the role is assigned.
