Now that the approval route is associated with the domain, approval roles are available for user assignment. The example approval policy has the following approval groups: Business, Technical and Quality
"Approval Groups": [ "Business", "Technical", "Quality" ]
Here is how we create users in Vera and assign to domain roles. Domain role assignments can be done from domain management or user management.
We can also import users with Domain Roles
