App permissions enable fine grained access controls for Heroku Enterprise Accounts. This article lists the different actions users can take when granted different permissions on apps. Permissions are independently assigned and any combination of permissions can be assigned to a user on an app. For more information on app permissions see Using App Permissions in Heroku Enterprise Teams.

- Permissions are independently assigned for a user on an app. For example, manage permission does not automatically include operate or deploy permission.
- Permissions can be granted in any combination. For example, a user can be granted operate and manage permission.
- If a user is granted the manage permissions, they can grant themselves additional permissions on the app.
- The view permission is assigned by default for all org members on unlocked apps in the organization. It is also assigned when a user is explicitly added to a locked app.
