Hi

Are there any specific Azure AD roles / privileges required when creating an Azure Resource with a System Assigned Managed Identity? For example, when deploying an API Management instance using Azure DevOps (Service Connection) - if the APIM is being created with a System Assigned Managed Identity.

Thanks

    Hi,

    You do not need any special permissions to create resource with system assigned managed identity besides the permissions to create the resource. For example to create API Management instance you will need API Management Service Contributor or higher role.
