Add users and assign roles

DigiCert Trust Lifecycle Manager in ServiceNow has 4 roles: admin, business owner, subscriber, and user. All application users require the x_dice_digicertone.user role.

  • The admin role is admin. The admin is responsible for installing the application, setting the API key, and importing the profiles.

  • The business owner role is x_dice_digicertone.business_owner. The business owner can perform all certificate-related activities and is responsible for approving or rejecting certificate requests.

  • The subscriber role is x_dice_digicertone.subscriber. The subscriber requests certificates. The business owner can then approve or reject the request.

  • The user role is x_dice_digicertone.user. It is a child role for subscribers or business owners. It also identifies its users as DigiCert ONE Trust Lifecycle Manager users.
