# Roles & Permissions `AmityClient` class provides a method `hasPermission` which allows you to check if the current logged-in user has permission to do stuff in a given channel. We determine a user's moderation capabilities based on their current role. social.plus SDK has the following default roles: 1. **Member** - has no moderation privileges 2. **Community/Channel Moderator** - can assert general moderation privileges on other users 3. **Super Moderator** - can assert general moderation privileges and be exempt from moderation from other users 4. **Global Admin** (Admin Only) - can assign the roles of others, assert all moderation privileges, and be exempt from moderation A user's role can be changed via the Console. Refer to [Moderation, Roles & Privileges](https://docs.social.plus/analytics-and-moderation/console/moderation-roles-and-privileges#change-user-role) for the instructions on how to change a user's role. {% hint style="warning" %} The Global Admin role cannot be assigned to a user. {% endhint %} Below are tables for each category that show the default roles and permissions. You can create new roles and assign a specific set of permissions for each role in the SP Console. Refer to [Moderation, Roles & Privileges](https://docs.social.plus/analytics-and-moderation/console/moderation-roles-and-privileges#create-role). ### User
