There are 3 types of App permissions which can be enabled for a user:
Read: When a role is created with Read permission, the user can only Read the data and download the logs. The user will not be able to run commands or delete profiles.
Write: When a role is created with Write permission, the user can perform all the functionalities and also download the logs. However, the user cannot delete profiles.
Delete: When a role is created with Delete permission, the user can perform all functions, download data and delete profiles.
