Before you assign it

  • It can give access to others. It allows Microsoft.Authorization/roleAssignments/write, so treat it as a privileged role and assign it through PIM where you can.

What it can do

PermissionWhat it allows
Microsoft.IoTOperations/*Every operation under Microsoft.IoTOperations
Microsoft.DeviceRegistry/register/actionRegister the subscription for Microsoft.DeviceRegistry
Microsoft.DeviceRegistry/schemaRegistries/readList SchemaRegistry resources by subscription ID
Microsoft.DeviceRegistry/schemaRegistries/writeCreate a SchemaRegistry
Microsoft.Authorization/*/readAny read operation on anything under Microsoft.Authorization
Microsoft.Authorization/roleAssignments/writeCreate a role assignment at the specified scope.
Microsoft.Insights/alertRules/*Every operation under Microsoft.Insights/alertRules
Microsoft.Resources/deployments/*Every operation under Microsoft.Resources/deployments
Microsoft.Resources/subscriptions/resourceGroups/readGets or lists resource groups.
Microsoft.Edge/sites/readGet a Site

Assign it

Scope it as tightly as you can: a resource or resource group rather than the whole subscription.

azure cli
az role assignment create \
  --assignee "jane.doe@contoso.com" \
