Administrators can identify unused roles that are assigned to users and unused permissions on a role. Genesys Cloud identifies the unused roles and permissions based on the usage patterns of users in the last 30 days. Administrators can remove them to reduce the security risks.

Note: Genesys Cloud does not identify unused roles and permissions in real time. The Unused columns update every 48 hours.
