<p>The User Roles API enables you to retrieve the set of roles that are available to the authenticated acting user within their program. Roles represent permission levels and access scopes for users across the Firstup platform. For example granting access to Creator Studio, content publishing tools, or member experience features.</p><br> <b>Resources</b> <ul> <li><a href="https://support.firstup.io/hc/en-us/articles/6278321908503-Defining-Roles-and-Permissions">Knowledge Base article on roles and permissions</a></li> <li><a href="/usermanagementapi/user-role-provisioning">Roles API overview page</a> for contextual guidance, use cases and API Flows. </li> </ul>
