Assign these permissions through Datadog roles.

Granular access on individual flags

Restrict edit access on a specific flag by selecting Settings > Permissions on the flag details page:

You can limit edit access to:

  • Individual users

Users without edit access can still view the flag if they have read permissions at the organization level.
