Site Collection Roles Report

The Site Collections Roles report at the site collection level provides a list of all roles or permission levels for the selected site collection, including custom defined roles and role descriptions. It also displays a calculation of the actual rights that each role grants within the targeted SharePoint on-premise farm or SharePoint Online instance.

NOTE: This report is only available at the site collection level.

This report is comprised of the following columns:

• Role – Role name for the SharePoint permission level

• Read – Right to view/read SharePoint resources
• Write – Right to add or modify SharePoint resources
• Delete – Right to delete SharePoint resources
