# Assigning User Roles

Impossible Cloud distinguishes between three user roles in its partner portal, each with specific permissions:

  Users with the 'admin' role can manage partner entities, team members and their partner's management console users, and register deals.
* <img src="/files/REBfE3LJyJOhD96M3LNQ" alt="" data-size="line">\
  Users with the 'staff' role can manage partner entities, including the creation (but not deletion) of partner users. However, they cannot manage their own team members. They can also register deals.

  Users with the 'viewer' role can only view information and cannot perform any management tasks.
