# Roles & permissions

> The roles in Metal and what each can do.

A member's **role** determines what they can see and do. Roles are shown on the **Members** page for reference.

## Available roles

| Role       | What they can do                                                                                        |
| ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Member** | Use the app day to day; personal account settings. Most firm-wide admin settings are hidden.            |
| **Power**  | Everything a Member can, plus access to **Scoring** configuration.                                      |
| **Admin**  | Full access to firm settings — integrations, taxonomy, members, teams, and more. Can publish workflows. |
| **Owner**  | Same administrative access as Admin.                                                                    |

<Note>
  There is no separate "viewer" role. Some internal capabilities are reserved for the Metal team.
</Note>

## Changing a role

Roles aren't self-serve in the app today. To change someone's role, use **Request to add users** on **Settings → Members** to describe the change, or contact [support@metal.ai](mailto:support@metal.ai). See [Adding & managing users](/help/admin/users).

<Tip>
  Follow least privilege: give people **Member** by default and reserve **Admin**/**Owner** for those who manage firm-wide configuration.
</Tip>
