How to restrict Non-Admin users to create labels in DAM?

You can set up custom roles to manage access and permissions based on your needs. For example, you can control who can create labels by assigning specific permissions to a custom role. Here’s how to do it:

Steps to Create Custom Roles

1. Log in to the DAM - use your login credentials to access your DAM account.

2. Go to the User Section - navigate to the "User" section in the hub, tab "Roles". This is where you can manage user access and permissions.
   **You will need an Owner, Administrator or Manager User Role in order to see this page.
3. You have 2 ways how to create a new custom role - from scratch and duplicating an existing role (for example "Administrator") and just deselecting some of its permissions.
   1. creating a new role from scratch:
      1. Click on "+Add Profile" and select the scope of the new role:
         1. if "Company" is selected, then the new custom role will apply to all tokens (projects) of the company
         2. if "Project" is selected, the new role will be available only for the current project
            
      2. Name the new custom role and set permissions - if you want to restrict the user to not be able to create labels, then leave "DAM" -> "Labels (read) -> "Labels (write)" as unchecked.  
         a complete list of the permissions descriptions can be found here.
   2. modifying an existing role:
      1. select the ... icon next to an existing role that you would like to restrict to not create labels
      2. choose "duplicate as a new profile"
         
      3. give a meaningful name of the new role
      4. go to "DAM" -> "Labels (read)" -> "Labels (write)" and deselect this option
         
4. Save the changes
