Use the Simulate Add Role for simulating the user's access changes for a resource (table).

## Vorbereitungen

Role required: access_analyzer_admin

Enable Take actions. For more information, see [Configuring the Access Simulator (Take actions)](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/bqNgzxF4Q6fjlPXWtGBAvg "Configure the Take actions options to complete the role and group assignments that you wish to add after the simulation.").

## Prozedur

1. Navigate to AllAccess AnalyzerAccess Simulator.
2. Select Simulate from the Add a Role to the user section.
3. In the Simulation criteria view, configure the following fields:  
   {#add-role-to-user__table_ygk_zkh_gbc__entry__2}

   | Field | Description |
   |-|-|
   | Select user \* | Specify a user name to select from the list. In this example, Abel Tuter. |
   | Select role \* | Specify a role to select from the list. In this example, itil_admin. |
   | Rule type \* | Rule type is auto-populated and it can't be changed. |
   | Select table \* | Specify a table name to select from the list. In this example, Incident. |
   | Select record | Specify a record name to select from the list (Optional). |
   | Select field | Specify a field name to select from the list. This field can be used to analyze permissions at the field level. For example, Active, Created By, and so on. |
   [Tabelle : 1. Add a Role to the user]

   {#add-role-to-user__table_ygk_zkh_gbc}
4. Click Next.
5. Preview the changes.  
   Use the Preview changes view to see a simulation of your configured choices. Validate the roles and child roles that have been added to the user before moving to the next step.

   In this example, you can see the new child roles that have been added in this simulation (highlighted in green, as Role or Group being added) as part of the
   itil_admin role, along with the user's currently assigned roles (Role or group being unchanged).
6. Click Next.
7. In the Simulated results view, check the Present status and Simulated status to validate that access is Passed or Blocked to the simulated user as intended.  

   In this example, adding the itil_admin role enables the user to perform delete operations on the table (Incident).  
   Hinweis:  
   * To know more about an ACL (operation) in the Simulated results view, click its operation link.
   * To start the simulation again for a different role, click Start over.
   * To exit the simulation, click Exit.
   {#add-role-to-user__ul_kgt_c4h_gbc}
8. Click Next.
9. To apply the simulated changes, on the Take action view, click Add and complete .  
   Hinweis:  
   * If Access Simulator isn't enabled, you can't complete the simulation. To enable it, select Enable actions and accept the legal information.
   * To hide the simulation, select Hide actions. To unhide and enable actions, go to Settings. For more information, see [Configuring the Access Simulator (Take actions)](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/bqNgzxF4Q6fjlPXWtGBAvg "Configure the Take actions options to complete the role and group assignments that you wish to add after the simulation.").
   * To exit the simulation without applying the simulated changes, select Skip and Exit.
   {#add-role-to-user__ul_aky_tmh_gbc}

   If you clicked Add and complete, the simulated roles are successfully added to the user. You can verify the access again by using the Access Analyzer. For more information about how to
   verify access of a user, see [Access Analyzer](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/fLmEAMeSTtgVriWPIdvwjQ "ServiceNow Access Analyzer is an access diagnostic tool designed for AI administrators or creators to validate the access controls configured within various resources and agentic assets (agentic workflows and AI agents).").
