Don't have acces to change security roles for managing office 365 users in the developer program environment.
Anyone else figure out how to get past the step to change the security role? I tried to give myself admin even though I am already admin in the environment. No permission.

Hello Gerid Adams,
Thank you for reaching out on the Microsoft Q&A forum.
Make sure you have the Global Administrator role, as other admin roles may not have permission to change security roles. If the issue persists, try clearing your browser cache or using a different browser. If it still doesn't work, contact your admin or Microsoft support for further assistance.
If you are still facing any issue, please let us know in the comments and where you are encountering this error along with the screenshot for reference. We are glad to help you.
