Granting Non-Administrator Roles Privileges to Create Credentials and Connection Profiles

When you delegate tasks to non-administrator roles, you must determine which tasks the users who are assigned to those roles can perform. Each Symantec Management Platform predefined security role includes inherent rights.
One example is the default Symantec Supervisors role. Users who are assigned to this role can run existing tasks without the role being granted additional privileges. These users can also create Network Discovery tasks if they have access to an existing connection profile.
However, to let non-administrator roles create new tasks and connection profiles, you grant privileges to those roles to create credentials and connection profiles. These additional privileges are necessary if users are expected to create new tasks that may require some credentials and connection profiles that are different from the existing credentials and profiles.
To let users assigned to non-administrator roles create credentials and connection profiles, you must enable those privileges for the role. These privileges let the users create the credentials and the connection profiles that are suited to the tasks that you delegate to them or that they create.
This task is a step in the process for delegating Network Discovery tasks to non-administrators.
