# Permissionset

Permission sets are a way to group permissions together. Security profiles then use the permission sets to grant or restrict users’ access to certain features.

Note that the configuration of this component varies by Vault. Permissionset metadata is not available through the Retrieve Component Type Metadata endpoint in Vault API. Learn about <a href="https://platform.veevavault.help/en/lr/22824" target="_blank">permission sets in Vault Help</a>.
