Is it possible to have hidden roles at the category level in M2?

Is it possible to have hidden roles at the category level in M2?

I've seen two other topics discussing this, but I have seen no direct answer.

Yes, I can add a role at the category level, but I need to know, specifically if it is possible to add a hidden role at the category level.

Is it possible, and if so, how? Everything I have tried has put the category level role user into the participant list in the course.

Thanks in advance,
Don

How did you enrol them at category level? I just enrolled a user at the category level as manager and then I went into a course and did not see them in the participants but I saw them in the "other users" link.

While at the category level, I use Assign roles.

so which role did you assign? Are you  saying that you are seeing them in the participants list of a course?

The role was a copy of a role and did not have permissions set correctly.

All is well now.

Thank you for your reply smile
