Set access permissions using role-based access control

A user in Azure Stack Hub can be a reader, owner, or contributor for each instance of a subscription, resource group, or service. For example, User A might have reader permissions to Subscription One, but have owner permissions to Virtual Machine Seven.

• Reader: User can view everything, but can't make any changes.
• Contributor: User can manage everything except access to resources.
• Owner: User can manage everything, including access to resources.
• Custom: User has limited, specific access to resources.

For more information about creating a custom role, see Custom roles for Azure resources.
