SXA Storefront security roles
Security roles assign permissions to Sitecore users for different areas of a site. When you create a new site with Commerce features in the Create a new SXA site dialog box, Sitecore creates a domain and two security roles, and assigns them to the site. The domain is created with the same name as the new storefront.
Sitecore creates the following roles:
-
Extranet User
-
Extranet Customer
These roles do not have any permissions or restrictions by default. You can configure the roles to restrict access to sections of the storefront that require authentication.
Each role belongs to only one domain. You can have two roles that belong to different domains and have the same name. For example, Site1/Extranet User is a different role from Site 2/Extranet User.
