Hello,

I am implementing user roles based on experience groups, which reflect the systems engine. What is the best practice for linking multiple experience groups, with different levels of access per user? Just as Losant manages users’ access to applications.

My use case is a multi-tenant application which the user can control devices in different plants, can be administrator or viewer depending the experience group.

You can implement your own custom user roles with a [Losant Experience](https://docs.losant.com/experiences/overview/).
