It would be great to have the ability to assign multiple roles in Glide tables, similar to what Google Sheets offers. This flexibility would enhance collaboration and make managing user permissions easier.

> **How many roles can a user have in an app?**  
> When using Glide Tables as the user profile table, a user can only have one Role assigned to them. However, when using Google Sheets, a user can have multiple roles.  
> In Google Sheets you can name columns Role 1, Role 2, Role 3, Role 4. Glide will turn that into a column array named Role, which you can use in the User Profile Role field (e.g. admin, manager).

We’ve been asking for this ever since Glide Tables became a thing.
