Permissions

Choose the permission or permissions marked as least privileged for this API. Use a higher privileged permission or permissions only if your app requires it. For details about delegated and application permissions, see Permission types. To learn more about these permissions, see the permissions reference.

Permission type	Least privileged permissions	Higher privileged permissions
Delegated (work or school account)	RoleManagement.ReadWrite.Directory	Not available.
Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Not supported.	Not supported.
Application	RoleManagement.ReadWrite.Directory	Not available.

Important

In delegated scenarios with work or school accounts, the signed-in user must be a member user or be assigned a supported Microsoft Entra role or a custom role with a supported role permission. Privileged Role Administrator is the least privileged role supported for this operation.
