Azure role assignment condition format and syntax

A condition is an additional check that you can optionally add to your role assignment to provide more fine-grained access control. For example, you can add a condition that requires an object to have a specific tag to read the object. This article describes the format and syntax of role assignment conditions.

Condition format

To better understand role assignment conditions, it helps to look at the format.

Simple condition

The most basic condition consists of a targeted action and an expression. An action is an operation that a user can perform on a resource type. An expression is a statement that evaluates to true or false, which determines whether the action is allowed to be performed.

The following shows the format of a simple condition.

Format of a simple condition with a single action and a single expression.

(
    (
        !(ActionMatches{'<action>'})
    )
    OR
    (
        <attribute> <operator> <value>
    )
)

The following condition has an action of "Read a blob". The expression checks whether the container name is blobs-example-container.

(
    (
        !(ActionMatches{'Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/blobServices/containers/blobs/read'})
    )
    OR 
    (
        @Resource[Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/blobServices/containers:name]
        StringEquals 'blobs-example-container'
    )
)

How a condition is evaluated

If a user tries to perform an action in the role assignment that is not <action>, !(ActionMatches) evaluates to true and the overall condition evaluates to true to allow the action to be performed.

If a user tries to perform <action> in the role assignment, !(ActionMatches) evaluates to false, so the expression is evaluated. If the expression evaluates to true, the overall condition evaluates to true to allow <action> to be performed. Otherwise, <action> is not allowed to be performed.

The following pseudo code shows another way that you can read this condition.

if a user tries to perform an action in the role assignment that does not match <action>
{
    Allow action to be performed
}
else
{
    if <attribute> <operator> <value> is true
    {
        Allow <action> to be performed
    }
    else
    {
        Do not allow <action> to be performed
    }
}

Suboperations

Some actions have suboperations. For example, the Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/blobServices/containers/blobs/read data action has the suboperation "List blobs". Conditions with suboperations have the following format.

Format for an action with a suboperation.

(
    (
        !(ActionMatches{'<action>'}
        AND
        SubOperationMatches{'<subOperation>'})

    )
    OR
    (
        <attribute> <operator> <value>
    )
)

Multiple actions

A condition can include multiple actions that you want to allow if the condition is true. If you select multiple actions for a single condition, there might be fewer attributes to choose from for your condition because the attributes must be available across the selected actions.

Format for multiple actions to allow if condition is true.

(
    (
        !(ActionMatches{'<action>'})
        AND
        !(ActionMatches{'<action>'})
    )
    OR
    (
        <attribute> <operator> <value>
    )
)

Multiple expressions

A condition can include multiple expressions. Depending on the operator, attributes can be checked against multiple values.

Format for multiple expressions using Boolean operators and multiple values.

(
    (
        !(ActionMatches{'<action>'})
    )
    OR
    (
        <attribute> <operator> <value>
        AND | OR
        <attribute> <operator> {<value>, <value>, <value>}
        AND | OR
        <attribute> <operator> <value>
    )
)

Multiple conditions

You can also combine conditions to target multiple actions.

Format for multiple conditions using Boolean operator.

(
    (
        !(ActionMatches{'<action>'})
    )
    OR
    (
        <attribute> <operator> <value>
        AND | OR
        <attribute> <operator> {<value>, <value>, <value>}
        AND | OR
        <attribute> <operator> <value>
    )
)
AND
(
    (
        !(ActionMatches{'<action>'})
    )
    OR
    (
        <attribute> <operator> <value>
        AND | OR
        <attribute> <operator> <value>
    )
)

Condition syntax

The following shows the syntax for a role assignment condition.

(
    (
        !(ActionMatches{'<action>'} AND SubOperationMatches{'<subOperation>'})
        AND
        !(ActionMatches{'<action>'} AND SubOperationMatches{'<subOperation>'})
        AND
        ...
    )
    OR
    (
        <attribute> <operator> {<value, <value>, ...}
        AND | OR
        <attribute> <operator> {<value>, <value>, ...}
        AND | OR
        ...
    )
)
AND
(
    (
        !(ActionMatches{'<action>'} AND SubOperationMatches{'<subOperation>'})
        AND
        !(ActionMatches{'<action>'} AND SubOperationMatches{'<subOperation>'})
        AND
        ...
    )
    OR
    (
        <attribute> <operator> {<value, <value>, ...}
        AND | OR
        <attribute> <operator> {<value>, <value>, ...}
        AND | OR
        ...
    )
)
AND
...

Actions

Currently, conditions can be added to built-in or custom role assignments that have blob storage or queue storage data actions. These include the following built-in roles:

For a list of the storage actions you can use in conditions, see:

Attributes

Depending on the selected actions, the attribute might be found in different places. If you select multiple actions for a single condition, there might be fewer attributes to choose from for your condition because the attributes must be available across all of the selected actions. To specify an attribute, you must include the source as a prefix.

Attribute source Description Code
Environment Attribute is associated with the environment of the request, such as the network origin of the request or the current date and time.
@Environment
Principal Attribute is a custom security attribute assigned to the principal, such as a user or enterprise application (service principal). @Principal
Request Attribute is part of the action request, such as setting the blob index tag. @Request
Resource Attribute is a property of the resource, such as a container name. @Resource

For a complete list of the storage attributes you can use in conditions, see:

Environment attributes

Environment attributes are associated with the circumstances under which the access request is made, such as the date and time of day or the network environment. The network environment might be whether access is over a specific private endpoint or a virtual network subnet, or perhaps over any private link.

The following table lists the supported environment attributes for conditions.

Display name Description Attribute Type
Is private link1 Use this attribute in conditions to require access over any private link. isPrivateLink Boolean
Private endpoint1,2 Use this attribute in conditions to restrict access over a specific private endpoint. Microsoft.Network/privateEndpoints String
Subnet1,3 Use this attribute in conditions to restrict access from a specific subnet. Microsoft.Network/virtualNetworks/subnets String
UTC now Use this attribute in conditions to restrict access to objects during specific time periods. UtcNow DateTime

1 For copy operations, the Is private link, Private endpoint, and Subnet attributes only apply to the destination, such a storage account, not the source. For more information about the copy operations this applies to, select each attribute in the table to see more details.
2 You can only use the Private endpoint attribute if you currently have at least one private endpoint configured in your subscription.
3 You can only use the Subnet attribute if you currently have at least one virtual network subnet using service endpoints configured in your subscription.

Principal attributes

Principal attributes are custom security attributes assigned to the security principal requesting access to a resource. The security principal can be a user or an enterprise application (service principal).

To use principal attributes, you must have the following:

For more information about custom security attributes, see:

Request attributes

Request attributes are associated with the criteria specified in an access request, such as the specified prefix of blobs to be listed.

Resource attributes

Resource attributes are associated with the object to which access is being requested, such as the storage account name, container name, or whether hierarchical namespace is enabled for the storage account.

Special characters

Character Description
* An asterisk (*) represents a multi-character wildcard match that can be used with Like operators. If needed, you can escape an asterisk by adding a backslash \*.
? A question mark (?) represents a single-character wildcard match that can be used with Like operators. If needed, you can escape a question mark by adding a backslash \?.
$ A dollar sign ($) is used to help delineate tag keys. In Azure PowerShell, if a string enclosed in double quotes (") includes a dollar sign, you must prefix it with a backtick (`). For example: tags:Project<`$key_case_sensitive`$>.

Grouping and precedence

If you have three or more expressions for a targeted action with different operators between the expressions, the evaluation order is ambiguous. You use parentheses () to group expressions and specify the order that the expressions are evaluated. Expressions enclosed in parentheses have higher precedence. For example, if you have the following expression:

a AND b OR c

You must add parentheses in one of the following ways:

(a AND b) OR c
a AND (b OR c)
