Default roles are now available to simplify the process of assigning an initial role to new users who enter SELECT.

Default roles can be used to assign specific roles to all users of the app, ensuring baseline access permissions across the entire Snowflake organization and its accounts. These roles are applied universally and help maintain consistent user access levels without the need for manual role assignment for each new user or account. When other roles are assigned manually, the most permissive role granted will take precedence.

To assign a default role, choose any role from the dropdown in the 'Default Roles' section of the user settings page. Default roles appear in the Roles dropdown in the Users table.
