  3. You may enter a Unique text (optional) for the new profile that can be referred to in APIs. The text should be lowercase, and underscore (_) should be used instead of spaces.

  4. In the General Permissions section, check the areas that the agents can enter and the actions they may perform.

  5. In each of the relevant Channels and Channel Settings, check the appropriate permission. Click multiple times until you see the needed icon. Checking the main channel (in a box) will to all subchannels under it.
