# Creating Talend Data Preparation users

Talend Administration Center allows you to define Talend Data Preparation users and assign them predefined roles.

This makes the user list accessible from Talend Data Preparation to share datasets or preparation with other listed users for example.

These users can either be related only to Talend Data Preparation, or to hybrid projects with both Data Preparation and other project types, Data Integration for example.
