Clerk Authorization vs Authentification
Hey! I'm developing a web app in Nextjs, and using Clerk for user management and authentification. The only problem is that I cant seem to find a way to give different users roles and privileges. I am going to have a customer page, but also an admin page, so these user groups need to have access to different resources.
I have looked through the Clerk documentation, but I cannot find anything on it. The only thing I could spot was the ability to add custom user metadata. Is that a good way of assigning roles and privileges? Or is there better way?

clerk does have two different ways of auth
b2b and b2c
but either way, you can attach some metadata for a user, his role, and handle that after fetch the clerk user
