What default user role can manage API credentials?

The default user role that can manage API credentials is Falcon Administrator . Falcon’s role-permission matrix shows “Manage API credentials” enabled for Falcon Administrator and not enabled for the other listed roles. Falcon Administrator is the broad administrative role that can access nearly all console functionality, with the notable exception that Real Time Response still requires dedicated RTR roles. Managing API credentials is a high-risk administrative function because API clients and secrets can be used by integrations, scripts, and external systems to access Falcon APIs according to assigned scopes. Therefore, Falcon restricts this capability to administrative authority rather than operational roles such as Falcon Security Lead or Endpoint Manager. Falcon Security Lead can manage detections, quarantined files, containment, event searches, and credential resets, but it cannot manage users, roles, or API credentials. “Falcon API Manager” is not the default role presented in the official role model.
