The SAS Portal API has several roles, defined below, each of which gives a user permission to make certain API calls. Roles are assigned to the user's Google Account.
The first user of a SAS customer's organization is the Admin, who's automatically added during the sign-up process. The Admin can then add other users and assign them roles, including the Admin role.
User roles
There are two roles that can be assigned to users:
role_admin
This role has full administrative privileges for all of the child resources under the parent resource to which it has been granted access. They set up the organization's structure within the SAS Portal and manage user access.
role_cpi
This role is for users that are Certified Professional Installers (CPIs). To claim this role,
users need to prove that they have an active CPI certification. They do so with the
ValidateInstaller()
method. Only users with a validated role_cpi role can use the
SignDevice()
method to submit the installation parameters of CBSDs that require CPI installation.
