Grant rights to perform Microsoft 365 management tasks
Using Adaxes, you can delegate Microsoft 365 management tasks to users. For example, you can allow users to activate and deactivate accounts in Microsoft 365, assign and revoke Microsoft 365 licenses, etc. The rights to perform Microsoft 365 management tasks, like any other rights in Adaxes, are granted with the help of security roles.
By default, some built-in security roles contain the Write All Properties and Full Control permissions that grant the right to perform all Microsoft 365 management tasks.
In this tutorial, you will learn how to add permissions to perform various Microsoft 365 tasks to an existing security role.
Permissions granted by security roles are effective only within Adaxes.
