+Command: `roles add-grant-scopes`
+
+The `roles add-grant-scopes` command lets you add grant scopes to a role.
+You can specify multiple grant scopes per role.
+
+## Example
+
+This example adds a grant to a role with the ID `o_1234567890` in the current scope and any children scopes:
+
+```shell-session
+$ boundary roles add-grant-scopes -id r_1234567890 -grant-scope-id "this" -grant-scope-id "children"
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+<CodeBlockConfig hideClipboard>
+
+```shell-session
+$ boundary roles add-grant-scopes [options] [args]
+```
+
+</CodeBlockConfig>
+
+### Command options
+
+- `-grant-scope-id=<string>` - The scope IDs that inherit grants set on the role.
+You can specify the following values:
+  - `this` - Applies to the current scope.
+  - `children` - Applies to all direct children of the scope and can only be used with global and org scopes.
+  - `descendants` - Applies to all descendants of the scope and can only be used with the global scope.
+- `-id=<string>` - The ID of the role you want to add grant scopes to.
+- `-version=<int>` The version of the role to add grant scopes to.
+If you do not specify a version, the command performs a check-and-set automatically.

+When setting up access controls for a user, it is important to first consider which scope(s) the user needs access to. Roles give users permission to perform actions through grants strings.
 It is recommended to add the user to a group, and then add the group to the role(s), instead of adding the user directly to the role(s). This way, you can manage multiple users at the same time, and it is easier to
 change the permissions of the user by adding/removing them from groups. You can manage OIDC/LDAP users and managed groups the same way, directly in the provider.
