Create and edit permission sets

Permission sets allow you to define preset permissions for your team. Once you've created a permission set and specified certain permissions for it, you can then assign the permission set to new and existing users to grant them the same access. With permission sets, you can assign and manage permissions for individuals or groups, without having to edit individual user profiles.

2. In the left sidebar menu, navigate to Users & Teams.
3. Click the Permission Sets tab.
4. In the upper right, click Create Permission Set.
5. On the Access tab, enter the permission set name at the top and navigate the tabs to select the permissions this set should have.
6. On the Review tab, review the permissions you selected for the set.
7. On the Users tab, click the dropdown menu to select the existing users you want to apply the permission set to. Or, you can skip this step and assign the new permission set to existing users after you create it. 
8. Once done, click Create. You can now assign this permission set to new users while creating them, and to existing users.
