# How To Assign Roles & Positions

Roles, positions and groups help you segment your human players to publish content only to those segments. Positions also allows impersonation of personas with the matching position (see Impersonation).

Roles and Positions can be assigned in Team table in the Editor or the Facilitator Dashboard. Groups are intended to be assigned dynamically via interaction and can only be named in the Editor.

### When to Use <a href="#when-to-use" id="when-to-use"></a>

Use this feature when:

* You need to control the dissemination of content to specific participants.
* Certain tasks require impersonation privileges (i.e. controlling certain stakeholders)

### How to Set It Up <a href="#how-to-set-it-up" id="how-to-set-it-up"></a>

Add **positions** by navigating to `Configuration` > `Positions`

If using Impersonation you can also add Personas to the position while here. Or add later add the position to the persona.
