View or Modify Role Template Linkage
Each predefined role in your organization is initially linked to a template that specifies the set of rights in the role. An organization administrator can unlink a role from its template to prevent the role from being affected if a system administrator modifies the predefined role.
Role templates are system objects that, while they cannot be directly modified, are affected when a system administrator updates a predefined role to add or remove rights. As long as a role in your organization is linked to its template, any changes that the system administrator makes to the set of rights in a predefined role affect the template itself and all roles that link to it.
Roles that you create in your organization are never linked to a template.
Use the unlinkFromTemplate and relinkToTemplate action links in a Role object to manage the linkage between a predefined role in your organization and the template from which it was derived.
vCloud Director 9.5 introduces OpenAPIs for managing rights and roles. You can examine the vCloud OpenAPI documentation at https://vCloud_Director_IP_address_or_host_name/docs.
