Roles and capabilities

BigBlueButton behavior in Moodle depends on both the plugin’s own capabilities and the broader Moodle role model.

​

Role-sensitive areas

Permissions affect who can:

• create activities
• join rooms
• join as moderator

​

Practical admin guidance

Review capabilities carefully for:

If teachers report missing controls, this page is one of the first places to audit.
