User roles/rights in the Administration Center
The login and password that were provided to you enable you to get through the authentication page and access Talend Administration Center. Then, as an Administrator, you can define the roles and rights of all other users.
The table below describes the user roles/rights in Talend Administration Center. It details what menus and menu items in the Administration Center each type of user role can have access to and what type of access (read-write or read-only).
Note that modification of roles and rights of a user assigned to a project is taken into account after next startup, if this user is already connected to the project.

Note that:
- A user with Auditor role cannot have Administrator or Security Administrator at the same time.
- A user with Administrative Use role can only be created if you are using the Talend Data Fabric license, and cannot have Administrator, Security Administrator, Operation manager, or Auditor at the same time.
- A user with r (read-only) right cannot to generate, deploy, and execute Jobs in Talend Administration Center. To be able to perform these operations, the w (read and write) right is required.
- The second person pronoun "you" used through out the document addresses the user of Talend Administration Center depending on his/her roles and rights and not any generic user of the Administration Center.
- The Operation manager, Designer, and Viewer all have read access on Talend Studio (following project authorization). The Designer also has write access.
