= Master Admin Access Control
You can create and manage multiple realms by logging into the `master` Keycloak admin console at `/{keycloak-root}/admin/index.html`
Users in the Keycloak `master` realm can be granted permission to manage zero or more realms that are deployed on the Keycloak server.
When a realm is created, Keycloak automatically creates various roles that grant fine-grain permissions to access that new realm.
Access to The Admin Console and REST endpoints can be controlled by mapping these roles to users in the `master` realm.
It's possible to create multiple super users as well as users that have only access to certain operations in specific realms.
== Global Roles
There are two realm roles in the `master` realm.
These are:
* admin
* create-realm
To add these roles to a user select the `master` realm, then click on `Users`.
Find the user you want to grant permissions to, open the user and click on `Role Mappings`.
Under `Realm Roles` assign any of the above roles to the user by selecting it and clicking on the right-arrow.
== Realm Specific Roles
Each realm in Keycloak is represented by an application in the `master` realm.
The name of the application is `<realm name>-realm`.
This allows assigning access to users for individual realms.
The roles available are:
* view-realm
* view-users
* view-applications
* view-clients
* view-events
* manage-realm
* manage-users
* manage-applications
* create-clients
* manage-clients
* manage-events
Manage roles includes permissions to view (for example a user with manage-realm role can also view the realm configuration).
To add these roles to a user select the `master` realm, then click on `Users`.
Find the user you want to grant permissions to, open the user and click on `Role Mappings`.
Under `Application Roles` select the application that represents the realm you're adding permissions to (`<realm name>-realm`), then assign any of the above roles to the user by selecting it and clicking on the right-arrow.
