# Portal role

The **Portal role** defines what administrative tasks a Document360 user can perform in the knowledge base portal — such as managing users, configuring project settings, and accessing security features. Every user in your project must be assigned a portal role.

Document360 provides four default portal roles: **Owner**, **Admin**, **Contributor**, and **Reviewer**. If none of these match your team's requirements, you can create custom portal roles with exactly the permissions you need.
