What types of roles exist in Sesame, and what are their characteristics?
In Sesame, there are two types of roles: General and Specific.
Each of these has two subtypes: “default roles”, and “custom roles”. Default roles are pre-installed in every account so you can start using Sesame right away. Custom roles can be created from scratch or by duplicating a default role.
As a result of the combination of the types and subtypes, we have:
- Default General roles.
- Custom General roles.
- Default Specific roles.
- Custom Specific roles.
Characteristics of the roles
Default General roles:
- They come preinstalled in Sesame.
- They are the old Higher Roles.
- They manage the entire company.

Custom General roles:
- They are created from scratch or by duplicating a Default General Role.
- They manage the entire company.
- They can edit any element, regardless of who created it.
