How do I update a Staff Member's Roles and Permissions in Arbiter Game?

Updated Since 7/8/2025

In this article, you will learn how to assign roles and permissions to your staff members in Arbiter Game. Each role comes with a predefined set of permissions, and some roles may have limitations on what can be assigned. These are standardized roles provided by the platform. If you cannot find an exact match for a staff member’s job title, we recommend selecting the role that most closely aligns with their responsibilities.
