Hi, when adding a new user to an environment and assigning a roll it shows as “owner”. Upon refresh it shows an empty field. It does not work with custom roles either. Any help/reason?

It seems to be registered now. Is this because of some permission delay? In that case a nice to have feature request would be a feedback on the waiting role assignment 🙂

Hi!

Yes, it’s a caching issue visually. It might be some delay before a Role added to a user from Apps is visible in Create. However, the role is in fact added immediately.
