Grant operator permissions to a user

When you grant operator permissions to a user, you select which roles the user has in
BlackBerry AtHoc
. The roles a user has determine the
BlackBerry AtHoc
features they can access. The roles that can be assigned to users are determined by the enable features in an organization.
Only Organization Administrators, Enterprise Administrators, and System Administrators can grant operator permissions to users. Operators cannot update their own permissions. Operators cannot assign or revoke higher level operator permissions than their own permissions. For example, an operator with Organization Administrator permissions can revoke or grant Organization Administrator permissions to another operator, but cannot grant Enterprise Administrator or System Administrator permissions.
