This page describes the details of some useful permissions for a reseller administrator role.

Introduction to reseller admin

A reseller admin role can have a range of privileges depending on how you will manage resellers and cloud users on the platform. So how the reseller will "manage its customers" will vary, depending on the privileges.

Before you create a reseller admin, we recommend that you first modify the standard ENTERPRISE_ADMIN role to create a basic tenant admin role to cover all features for your platform, including public cloud. See Modify user roles to add public cloud. Also remove any privileges for features that you are not using.

To access and manage a user role, an administrator role must have the same privileges or more privileges than the user role. When you add privileges to user roles to activate features, also add these privileges to your administrator roles.
