## Global Permission Assignment

Global permissions for local users are assigned differently than users who log in to Rancher using external authentication.

### Global Permissions for New Local Users

When you create a new local user, you assign them a global permission as you complete the **Add User** form.

To see the default permissions for new users,

1. In the upper left corner, click **☰ > Users & Authentication**.
1. In the left navigation bar, click **Roles**.
1. The **Roles** page has tabs for roles grouped by scope. Each table lists the roles in that scope. In the **Global** tab, in the **New User Default** column, the permissions given to new users by default are indicated with a checkmark.

You can [change the default global permissions to meet your needs.](#configuring-default-global-permissions)
