This article provides information on a portion of the Absorb system that has been updated with the Absorb Admin Refresh Experience.  The instructions and guidance in this article are intended for those whose environment has enabled the free Absorb Admin Refresh Experience upgrade. For more information about what is available with this, please check out the Absorb Admin Refresh Checklist!

The Admin Refresh has made it easier for you to configure granular Role permissions. Each administrative area now has a section listing the permission set available for the feature or process.

Previously, Course permissions were configured as View, Modify, and Delete. The Admin Refresh experience has expanded the Modify permission based on the different tiles or sections that exist on the page. This setup allows administrators (with the appropriate permissions) to add or remove access to different areas of the Admin Interface.

The attached document is a companion to the Absorb Knowledge Base article and provides a comparison of the default Role permission sets
