Permission reference

This article provides an overview of the Power Platform API granular permissions. These permissions are initially available for registering client applications in Microsoft Entra and may become available in security roles in the future.

Naming convention

Permissions in Power Platform API are named in the following manner: {namespace}.{resourceType}.{action}, where:

  • namespace is the logical grouping of resources and functionality

  • resourceType is the specific resource type on which the permission is defined and must be unique across the resource type's namespace and

  • action is named per the table below

    HTTP Method Path Structure Action Name(s)
    GET or HEAD Any Read
    DELETE Any Delete
    PATCH Any Update
    PUT Any Create and Update
    POST /{namespace}/.../{resourceType} Create
    POST /{namespace}/.../{resourceType}/{resourceId}/{action} {action}
