Question 1

Every LaunchDarkly account has four built-in roles. They are:

Answer 1

Reader

Writer

Admin

Owner

Question 2

Reader

Answer 2

Readers can view information in LaunchDarkly, but can’t modify it.

This role is for members of your organization who need visibility into your feature flags, but shouldn’t be able to modify rollout rules or administrative settings.

Question 3

Writer

Answer 3

Writers can make changes to LaunchDarkly that impact what the platform does. For example, they can modify feature flags, metrics, environments, projects, and more. They can’t add new account members to the account or manage your payment method or plans.

This role is for members who need the ability to configure your organization’s feature flags.

Question 4

Admin

Answer 4

Admins can do anything in LaunchDarkly except modify which account member has the Owner role.

Question 5

Owner

Answer 5

Owners have absolute power over your entire LaunchDarkly account, including the ability to add or remove the Admin role from other account members, or to remove the Owner role from themselves and assign it to someone else.
