Roles

LangGuard has three roles with different permission levels:

Admin

Full access to all features and settings:

  • Configure integrations, policies, SSO, and all settings
  • Manage users and API keys
  • Access all features and settings

Member

Can use all features but has limited settings access:

  • View and interact with Discovery, Monitoring, Trace Explorer, and other features
  • Cannot modify integrations, SSO, or workspace settings
  • Can apply tags to assets

Viewer

Read-only access:

  • View dashboards, traces, and reports
  • Cannot modify any data or settings
  • Useful for stakeholders who need visibility without edit access

Changing Roles

  1. Find the user in the user list
  2. Click the role dropdown next to their name
  3. Select the new role
  4. The change takes effect immediately

Removing Users

  1. Find the user in the user list
  2. Click the Remove button
  3. Confirm the action

Removed users immediately lose access to the workspace. Their past actions remain in the Audit Log.

Best Practices

  • Follow least privilege — Assign the minimum role needed for each user's responsibilities
  • Limit admin accounts — Keep the number of admins small and track who has admin access
  • Review membership regularly — Remove users who no longer need access
  • Use SSO with role mapping — Automate role assignments via your identity provider (SSO Settings)
