Introduction
- Custom roles and permissions allow the fleet admins to manage, access, and improve the security of their fleet’s data.
- These features allow the admins to easily assign users one of our pre-built roles or create a custom role for them.
- They can also limit roles to specific groups to ensure work is delegated to the right people.
Steps: Managing user Roles and Groups
Assign roles and groups to a user
1. Log into the Motive Fleet Dashboard, and click the Admin icon in the left-hand side menu.
2. Click Fleet Users from the Organization dropdown.
3. Under the Roles/Groups column are the existing roles for all the users in your fleet.
4. To change or edit a user’s roles, click Options. Then click Edit Roles & Groups.
5. This opens a dialog box where you can set a role for the user in the primary field and a group in the secondary field.
6. Click the + icon, it allows you to assign multiple roles and groups to the same user.

Manage user roles
Fleets can view, duplicate, or deactivate user roles that are created.
1. Repeat the steps 1 and 2 from the above section.
2. From the Fleet Users screen, click the Roles & Permissions tab. The page displays the default and custom roles. In the Roles/Status column, you can see a filtered list of users who are already assigned to that role.
3. To duplicate a role, click Options for the role you want to duplicate and click Duplicate.
4. A duplicate role is created of the selected role with the same set of permissions. You can set a new name for the duplicate role and adjust the level of access they have to fleet data by checking or unchecking the boxes.
