Just for my clarification on this…I know you can’t assign a role to a user (the user profile role column) within glide if you don’t have the same role yourself. But can’t anybody assign a role to any row as a row owner? So, two different things…the user profile role and the role used as a row owner value. I feel like a simple onboarding process could fill in the row owner role without having to go through a third party, such as Make.

I could be wrong though. I thought the whole thing was that a user could not change their own role to a role they don’t belong to, for security reasons. So a non-admin could not make themselves an admin, but they could fill a column in any row with an admin value that could be used for row ownership.
