# RBAC permissions, actions, and scopes

A permission is comprised of an action and a scope. When creating a custom role, consider the actions the user can perform and the resource(s) on which they can perform those actions.

To learn more about the Grafana resources to which you can apply RBAC, refer to [Resources with RBAC permissions]({{< relref "../#fixed-roles" >}}).

- **Action:** An action describes what tasks a user can perform on a resource.
- **Scope:** A scope describes where an action can be performed, such as reading a specific user profile. In this example, a permission is associated with the scope `users:<userId>` to the relevant role.

## Action definitions

The following list contains role-based access control actions.

### Grafana OnCall action definitions (beta)

> **Note:** Available from Grafana 9.4 in early access.

> **Note:** This feature is behind the `accessControlOnCall` feature toggle.
> You can enable feature toggles through configuration file or environment variables. See configuration [docs]({{< relref "../../../../setup-grafana/configure-grafana/#feature_toggles" >}}) for details.

| `teams:*` <br> `teams:id:*`                     | Restrict an action to a set of teams from an organization. For example, `teams:*` matches any team and `teams:id:1` matches the team whose ID is `1`.                                                                                              |
| `users:*` <br> `users:id:*`                     | Restrict an action to a set of users from an organization. For example, `users:*` matches any user and `users:id:1` matches the user whose ID is `1`.                                                                                              |
| `n/a`                                           | `n/a` means not applicable. If an action has `n/a` specified for the scope, then the action does not require a scope. For example, the `teams:create` action does not require a scope and allows users to create teams.                            |
