Only users with role Organization-User-Manager can add members to an organization and manage their role mapping.
Users with profile api_management_admin, so-called "superadmins" (refer to Administration), bypass all memberships and can manage the content in all organizations.

Every user must be assigned to at least one organization to be able to use the API Management. In the Members tab of an organization, you can manage the members.

Applicable Roles

At least one role has to be assigned to API Management users. Scheer PAS API Management comes with the following standard roles:

Role NameDescription
EditorAuthorizes the user to create, edit, delete and publish content.
Organization-User-ManagerA user with this role can add members to an organization and manage their role mapping.
ViewerGrants the user the permission to view content.

In API Management, a user can see all APIs for which he has explicit permissions (Viewer, Editor). The permissions are assigned in the corresponding organizations. In addition, a user can be assigned the profile api_management_admin in the user management (refer to Administration Guide) which makes him a "superadmin" who can see and do everything in API Management.
