## Adding a new role

To add a new role, click the '+' in the top right corner. This will bring up the form to add a new role in a pop-up.

## Editing an existing role

To edit a role, click the grey 'Edit' button on the right side of what role you want to edit. For this example, we'll edit 'Admin'.

Once you edit it and click update, the pop-up will disappear and show the edited role and a 'Role type updated' message bar in the lower left.
