   [What are Pod Security Policies?]({{< baseurl >}}/rancher/v2.x/en/concepts/global-configuration/pod-security-policies)

   Note: This option is only available if you've already created a Pod Security Policy. For instruction, see [Creating Pod Security Policies]({{< baseurl >}}/rancher/v2.x/en/tasks/global-configuration/pod-security-policies/#creating-pod-security-policies).

      Note: You can only search for groups if external authentication is enabled.

      [What are Roles?]({{< baseurl >}}/rancher/v2.x/en/concepts/global-configuration/users-permissions-roles/#cluster-and-project-roles)

      Tip: Choose Custom to create a custom role on the fly: [Custom Project Roles]({{< baseurl >}}/rancher/v2.x/en/concepts/global-configuration/users-permissions-roles/#custom-project-roles).

   4. To add more members, repeat substeps a—c.
