In the navigation pane of Devo there is a menu called Administration. This is where Admin users can manage activity permissions within the domain. In addition to the Admin role, some users with custom roles that include some administrative-level permissions may also access the Administration features.

Admins can manage:

- The domain's users and roles.
- The credentials used for sending and receiving data securely.
- The availability of specialized applications in the domain.
- Data processes that use system resources.

These activities are carried out within the **Administration **of the Devo Application. Instructions for working with [relays](https://docs.devo.com/space/latest/96468993/Devo+Relay) and [alerts](https://devodocs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/latest/pages/95127087) are included in other sections of our documentation.

Admin users can also set the preferences that determine the default values for all the users in the domain by going to **Preferences → ****Domain preferences**.
