Creating custom operator user roles allows operators to design specific roles with permissions tailored to their needs. It lets you have a more precise control over user access and tasks.
This feature is only available for integrated marketplaces with the front end disabled. Learn more.
Marketplacer also offers pre-existing operator user roles.

Notes:
- The role name will be humanized, meaning it will be converted into a more readable and user-friendly format such as capitalizing words or adding spaces (e.g., admin_user becomes Admin User) when viewed in the user role listing table.
