# Add and Remove Child Roles

You can add child roles to a role. This means that when an application requests user privileges by calling `action=UserRead` with the parameter `recurse=true`, any users assigned to the child role are given the same privileges as users assigned to the parent role (in addition to any privileges they have through membership of the child role).

To add a child role

1. Select the role to add the child role to.

2. Click Add Child Role.

   The Add Child Role to Role dialog box opens.

3. Select the check boxes beside the roles that you want to add as child roles, and click OK.

   The dialog box closes and the child roles are added.

To remove a child role

1. Select the role to modify.

2. Click X beside the child role that you want to remove.

   The Remove Child Role Confirmation dialog box opens.

3. Click Delete.

   The child role is removed.
