Powers of attorney that were previously part of a role are now distributed across multiple access packages. An access package provides more precise powers of attorney than roles did.

Use the power of attorney overview under Access Management to search for access packages. Consider which services different individuals and organisations need access to, and find out which of the new access packages these services belong to.

In the new Altinn, roles are no longer used the way you know them from the old Altinn. Roles have been replaced by access packages. These consist of powers of attorney for forms and services within one area, for example "Health services" and "Waste management".

This means you must obtain power of attorney for one or more access packages in order to use and access services in the new Altinn.

How do I get powers of attorney? 

The access manager or main administrator in the organisation grants powers of attorney for access packages.

If you do not have access to the services or access packages you need, you can request power of attorney yourself in Altinn. The access manager or main administrator in the organisation receives your request and can approve it.

How long do I have access via Altinn roles? 

The old Altinn roles are valid until the end of 2026, but you can no longer give or receive new roles.
