Then I added my own (very simple) code to the module that adds the authorities to the sites upon bootstrap using a map of maps {siteShortName: {authority: role}}

So turns out the solution's pretty simple.

Hi Patrick,

I'm trying to implement the same solution. I didn't find much information on this.
I would really appreciate if you could share more information and add sample code.

Thanks,
