Thanks for reaching out, Henning. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.
LiveKit uses a detailed permission system based on grants embedded in access tokens. These grants give you fine-tuned control over things like room management, participant permissions, and service administration. That said, there isn’t a set list of predefined roles like "admin," "read," or "write" in LiveKit Cloud. If you want to set up role-based access, you can mix and match specific grants to create your own custom roles. For example: • Admin: Combine grants like
roomAdmin
,
roomCreate
, and
roomList
. • Read: Use grants like
roomJoin
and
canSubscribe
. • Write: Include grants like
canPublish
and
canPublishData
. If you’re talking about project-level roles for team collaboration in the LiveKit Cloud dashboard, just let me know—I’m here to help! Sources: packages/livekit-server-sdk/src/grants.ts | Development Tools | livekit/livekit_composite | DeepWiki | LiveKit Pricing
