Hi Alex

The role stays there forever even if you deploy new or the same projects with the other roles with or without the new role. Does not depend. However, the role has a flag that it was created dynamically (See last parameter true). This means that the project that has created the role is also responsible for its administration (edit, delete, etc.)

Hi Reto

thanks for your answer. What happens with such a role after a deployment, without this new role in the deployed projects?

Thanks and best regards Alex

Hi Alex

You can use the following non Public API:

ivy.wf.getSecurityContext().getTopLevelRole().createChildRole("MyRole", "DisplayNameOfMyRole", "Description of MyRole", true);

to add a new role.
