Create Custom Role
Creates a custom role with a per-category permission matrix. Custom roles are available on the Enterprise plan. Every category is at least ‘view’ — omitted categories default to ‘view’. The role name must be unique in your organization and must not collide with a system role name; the permission matrix must not duplicate an existing role’s. Requires a global API key.
