# Assign User Roles

As a Super user with care representative privileges, you can add assign a role or change a role in the Vindicia IDP 2.0 Console. By defining a role, you are defining the visibility that the user will have in the Vindicia Portal.

**Note:** To learn more about Vindicia roles:

* For Vindicia Retain, see [roles in the Retain User Guide](/portal/retainPortalUserGuide/topics/portalRetainUserRoles).
* For Vindicia Subscribe, see [roles in the Subscribe User Guide](https://docs.vindicia.com/bundle/b_Subscribe_Portal2_User_Guide/page/topics/portalUserRoles.html).
* When creating an additional Super user with user management permissions, you'll need to add two roles, the relevant super User role (functional for the Vindicia portal) as well as Care representative role (provides user management privileges in Vindicia IDP).
