Models and providers

In the administration area you define which providers and which individual models a role may use – and under which name a model is shown to users.

By default a provider is available to all users. With Only specific roles may use … you restrict it to selected roles and define the allowed models per role.

Provider settings with roles and the models allowed per role

Because a user has exactly one role, exactly one of these rows applies to them. Allowances from several roles are not added together: a cohort that needs the models of two roles combined requires a role of its own.

Points to note:

  • If the ADMIN role is not ticked, administrators lose this provider as well.
  • USER is the default role for everyone whose login matched no role mapping. Without a tick, those users see nothing of the provider.
  • A role you do not tick still sees the provider, but with an empty model list. Providers are switched on by the server environment and cannot be removed here, only emptied. Therefore leave at least one model active per role.

With Manage model labels from companyADMIN you show a model under a name of your choosing – for example “Claude Sonnet 4.6” instead of the technical model ID.

Model labels with label, provider, model, group and description

Per entry you configure:

FieldMeaning
LabelDisplayed name of the model
Provider and ModelTechnical mapping to the actual model
DescriptionShort hint on its purpose, for example “For simple tasks”
Group and Group iconGrouping in the model picker, for example by provider
Icon URLOptional custom icon
Preselected for new chatsThe model is preselected in new conversations

For OpenAI models, Use the OpenAI Responses API is available additionally. The arrows change the order of the entries in the picker.

In the model picker of a conversation, users then see only the providers and models released for their role – grouped and with the labels you assigned.

Which models are generally available in the model selection additionally depends on the server configuration.
