Propelo and Harness
Propelo is now Harness SEI.
In January 2023, Harness acquired Propelo, now called Harness Software Engineering Insights (SEI). This page provides information for former Propelo customers who are now using Software Engineering Insights in the Harness Platform.
This documentation is written for the SEI module within the Harness Platform. If you're migrating from standalone SEI (formerly Propelo), use the standalone SEI documentation until your migration is complete.
For more information about the acquisition, go to the Harness blog.

Authentication, access, and user management
Authentication, access, and user management are part of the Harness Platform. Permissions granted to users and user groups depends on their associations with resources and resource groups, which are controlled at the account and project level in Harness. For more information about authentication, access, and user management, go to the following:
User roles
Harness SEI has three built-in user roles:
SEI Admin
SEI Collection Admin
SEI Viewer
These roles replace the user roles that existed in Propelo (Admin, Org Manager/Admin, Auditor, Limited User, Restricted User, Assigned Issue User, and Public Dashboard User). In the Harness Platform, use Harness RBAC for access control. For example, you can add user groups or add user roles according to your custom access needs.
