Administrator role assignment email
When you assign a Code42 administrator role to a user, all Customer Cloud Admin users receive an email with details of the assignment. You can ignore the email if you made the role assignment.

The email includes:
- The Code42 username of the person assigned the administrator role

- The date and time of the role assignment
- The Code42 username of the person who made the role assignment
