Roles

[RupeshK38781664]

In my Personal Developer Instance (PDI), how can I grant a user the security_admin role if my own user account does not already have the security_admin role?

I want to do this without contacting or using another user account that already has the security_admin role.

Hi @RupeshK38781664 

To grant the role to another user using the fresh OOB account:

1. Log in to your instance using the new OOB admin credentials.
2. Click your user name in the banner's header (e.g., System Administrator) and select Elevate Roles.
3. Check the box for security_admin and click OK.
4. Navigate to User Administration > Users, open the target user's record, add the security_admin role to their Roles related list, and save.

If you are not admin to your PDI ,

Click https://developer.servicenow.com/dev.do#!/manage-instance

Under Action: Change User Role to Admin

Then follow Above process.
