How to assign another resource group owner in Azure portal

Question

I'm a resource group owner (and subscription owner). How can I assign another owner to a resource group? According to online tutorials, this should be possible, but I don't see "owner" option in the Privileged administration roles tab of the Add role assignments window.

Answer 1

Open Resource Group -> Select Access Control -> Select Role Assignments -> Make sure you are the owner

then click Add -> Role Assignment -> Select Owner -> Next

Answer 2

Before you try to add an owner can you check that you are an owner? There should be a "View my access" button. If you don't have ownership at the RG scope then you can't assign an additional owner.
