+==== Roles and Users
+
+{ProductShortName} makes use of three roles or personas:
+
+* `tackle-admin` (administrator)
+* `tackle-architect` (architect)
+* `tackle-migrator` (migrator)
+
+These roles are already defined in your RHSSO instance. You do not need to create them.
+
+If you are an {ProjectShortName} administrator, you can create users in your RHSSO and assign each user one or more roles
+
+==== Definitions of Roles
+
+Although a user can have more than one role, each role has a specific definition:
+
+* Administrator: An administrator has all the permissions that architects and migrators have, along with access to some application-wide configuration parameters that other users can consume but not change or browse. Examples: Git credentials, Maven `settings.xml` files.
+
+* Architect: A technical lead for the migration project that can create and modify applications and information related to them. An architect cannot modify or delete sensitive information, but can consume it. Example: Associate an existing credential to the repository of a specific application.
+
+* Migrator: A developer who can analyze applications, but not create, modify, or delete them.
