This feature is part of an extension. Extensions are a flexible way to access additional capabilities in Fusion. Learn more.
Updated features and workspaces described in this topic are being rolled out gradually to customers. Contact your Autodesk representative for more detail.
A key component of the Fusion Manage Extension is the role. Each role contains a set of permissions that govern what workspaces a user can access, what tabs on items within that workspace they can see, and what actions they are allowed to take. One or more roles are then assigned to one or more groups. Then, when users are added to a group they inherit the permissions of that group. This enables you to be flexible and granular in how you grant access to different areas of your site.
The default site comes with a number of roles and permissions. You may want to create additional roles or modify the ones that are already there. See .
