Role assignments

You can manage and assign service-level roles from within each service as long as you have the appropriate permissions in the service.

For example, users with the Administrator role in Orchestrator can create and edit roles, and assign roles to existing accounts.

Manage access user interface based on scope

The Manage access user interface (UI) keeps a consistent appearance across all scopes.

The following table illustrates how the Manage access UI looks like for each scope:

Tenant Administrator role visibility at service level

The Tenant Administrator role assignment is visible both at tenant and individual service level. At the service level, the Tenant Administrator role has the following properties:

  • It is shown with a platform role label.

  • It is immutable, implying that you cannot remove the assignment at the service level.

  • In some services, such as Orchestrator, there is a link next to the role that redirects you to the Manage access page at platform level, where you can change the tenant-level role assignments.

Assigning and managing service-level roles

You can manage and assign service-level roles from within the services. You can assign roles to groups (recommended), or to accounts that have already been added.
