# User Roles and Permissions

Process Intelligence provides role-based access control to ensure appropriate permissions and security across the platform. The available roles determine the level of access and functionality within the system.

Access to Process Intelligence can be regulated in three ways: 

* Through Process Intelligence Enterprise (accessed via app.workfellow\.com).
* Embedded Views within [ProcessMaker BPA Platform](https://docs.processmaker.com/docs/process-analytics).
* [Agent Plugins](/process-intelligence/configuration/service-deployment.md) or the [Chrome Extension](/process-intelligence/configuration/chrome-extension.md). 

Each method provides different levels of interaction, ensuring users have the appropriate access based on their role and function within the system.
