HI 

If you are on K2 4.7 or Appit 1.5 you can also use the K2 Management page:

Hello,

There isn’t an out of the box service object that allows you to manage (add/remove) K2 Roles. There is, however, a User Role Manager service with a “Role’ smartobject which you may utilize to retrieve the Roles and display it on a View. 

Thank you.  4.7 K2 Management Page is exactly what I was looking for.  Unfortunately, we are not able to move from 4.6.11 anytime soon.  Not on required Windows Server yet.

Programmatically setting a role, is not ideal as I needed to set something up for non techny people to manage.  

User Role Manager, good for showing a list.  Shame that I can't add/remove users from it.   Thanks I might set that up for now.

If really needed, it may be possible to develop a custom service broker to interact with roles using the SourceCode.HostClientAPI and the SourceCode.Security.UserRoleManager.Management assemblies:

Then create SmartObject(s) and build a view for interacting with roles.
