Launch Week Day 2: Roles

Day 2 of Launch Week introduces Roles, a feature that simplifies access control levels for users by defining sets of permissions based on job functions or responsibilities. Users can be categorized into roles such as admin, developer, and support, each with specific permissions. Roles provide the foundation for authorization (AuthZ), allowing administrators to provision users according to their specified roles within the WorkOS dashboard. Role creation is simple, and once created, they can be assigned to users. Integration of Roles with the WorkOS SDKs enables user access control by decoding JWT tokens. Upcoming features include role mapping from Identity Providers (IdPs) and organization-level defaults for default roles.
