The QMC is delivered with a set of predefined administration roles. Each role is associated with security rules tailored for specific purposes as described in the following table.
| Property | Description |

| RootAdmin |
Created on installation. This role is automatically assigned to the user who provided the first valid license key to the QMC. The RootAdmin has full access rights to all Qlik Sense resources. |
| AuditAdmin |

| ContentAdmin | Has create, read, update and delete rights for all resources except nodes, engines, repositories, schedulers, proxies, virtual proxies, and syncs. Has read and publish rights on the Monitoring apps stream. |
