# Role Object

<br />A Role is a named collection of permissions that links actions to a Resource. Roles are assigned to Members, either *explicitly* by direct assignment or *implicitly* by matching attributes or conditions, which grants them permissions.

[Role assignment](/multi-tenant-auth/enterprise-ready/rbac/assigning-roles-to-members) can be programmatically managed through certain Stytch API endpoints.

All Roles are stored in your Project's RBAC Policy. You can create, manage, and assign Roles in the [RBAC Policies page](https://stytch.com/dashboard/rbac) of the Stytch Dashboard.

Check out the [RBAC overview](/api-reference/b2b/api/rbac/overview) to learn more about Stytch's RBAC permissioning model.
