Actions389

Overview

This node integrates with the Autotask REST API to create a new Role resource. It allows users to define and map the fields of the Role entity dynamically, enabling the creation of custom roles within Autotask. This is useful for automating role management in IT service management workflows, such as assigning permissions or categorizing users based on roles.
