Hello,
I want to understand the difference between a READER and an USER role. Which has more access rights and what are those? I have referred to SNOW docs but did not find helpful.
Can someone please explain from their working experience?
Thanks!!

Please see OOB ACLs' which contains one of these two roles below
https://<<<YOUR_INSTANCE_NAME>>>.service-now.com/sys_security_acl_role_list.do?sysparm_query=sys_user_role%3D7585a261cb200200829cf865734c9cd7%5EORsys_user_role%3Df82ca1c1d7321200d92cc257ed6103d9
Both roles has access to different tables for CRUD operations.

Hi there,
Have a look at this docs page, has a good explanation of what the roles contain.
https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/jakarta-governance-risk-compliance/page/product/grc-risk/referenc...
* sn_risk.user:
Contains the reader and user roles in sn_grc scope, and the reader role in the Risk Management application. In addition to the inherited permissions, the risk user can view profile types, profiles, risks, and remediation tasks. The risk user can be assigned risks and has read-only access to the Policy and Compliance Management application and modules.
sn_grc.reader

Inherits the following roles if the GRC: Policy and Compliance Management plugin is activated.
