### Alerting roles
If you [enable]({{< relref "../../alerting/unified-alerting/opt-in.md" >}}) Grafana Alerting, you can use predefined roles to manage user access to alert rules, alert instances, and alert notification settings and create custom roles to limit user access to alert rules in a folder.
Access to Grafana alert rules is an intersection of many permissions:
- Permission to read a folder. For example, the fixed role `fixed:folders:reader` includes the action `folders:read` and a folder scope `folders:id:`.
- Permission to query **all** data sources that a given alert rule uses. If a user cannot query a given data source, they cannot see any alert rules that query that data source.
For more information about the permissions required to access alert rules, refer to [Create a custom role to access alerts in a folder]({{< relref "./plan-rbac-rollout-strategy#create-a-custom-role-to-access-alerts-in-a-folder" >}}).
