System administrators can grant users access to Playbooks by assigning delegated development permissions or directly assigning Roles. The following user roles are available for Playbooks:

Role	Description
pd_admin	Enables users to create, update, and delete trigger definitions. Also enables users to launch the Playbooks environment to create, activate, edit, and delete playbooks, activity definitions, and trigger definitions.
pd_author	Enables users to launch the Playbooks environment to create, activate, edit, and delete playbooks.
pd_content_author	Enables users to create, edit, and delete activity definitions and trigger definitions.
pd_trigger_author	Enables users to create, update, and delete trigger definitions.
pd_operator	Enables users to view process executions, activity executions, and execution logs only.
pd_shared.user	Enables users to view the Experience activity types (sys_pd_activity) and Experience activity properties (sys_pd_activity_type_prop) tables that are shared by Playbooks and Playbook Experience.
pd_shared.admin	Enables users to edit the Experience activity types (sys_pd_activity) and Experience activity properties (sys_pd_activity_type_prop) tables that are shared by Playbooks and Playbook Experience.
pd_cancel	Enables users to cancel running playbooks without the pd_admin role or write access to the parent record. For example if you want to grant an agent manager the ability to cancel playbooks, but not an agent.

Note:

Granting users Playbooks roles does not automatically allow them to access the Flow Designer design environment. Granting users access to Flow Designer may be helpful when creating activity definitions. For more information on Flow Designer roles, see user access to Flow Designer.
