      Hi Pranav,

      The permission sets can only be assigned at a user level.

      Thankyou

      Hi Pranav,

      There is no sense of assigning the permission set to a profile. The permission set is for adding an exception on the profiles means providing additional access. You can add permission set's permission on the profile directly.

      A Permission Set is a collection of settings and permissions that give users access .Permission sets can assign to users only can't assign to profiles.
