Module:

Az.Resources Module

Removes a role assignment to the specified principal who is assigned to a particular role at a particular scope.

The cmdlet may call below Microsoft Graph API according to input parameters:

• GET /users/{id}
• GET /servicePrincipals/{id}
• GET /groups/{id}
• GET /directoryObjects/{id}
• POST /directoryObjects/getByIds

Please notice that this cmdlet will mark ObjectType as Unknown in output if the object of role assignment is not found or current account has insufficient privileges to get object type.

Description

Use the Remove-AzRoleAssignment commandlet to revoke access to any principal at given scope and given role. The object of the assignment i.e. the principal MUST be specified. The principal can be a user (use SignInName or ObjectId parameters to identify a user), security group (use ObjectId parameter to identify a group) or service principal (use ServicePrincipalName or ObjectId parameters to identify a ServicePrincipal. The role that the principal is assigned to MUST be specified using the RoleDefinitionName parameter. The scope of the assignment MAY be specified and if not specified, defaults to the subscription scope i.e. it will try to delete an assignment to the specified principal and role at the subscription scope. The scope of the assignment can be specified using one of the following parameters. a. Scope - This is the fully qualified scope starting with /subscriptions/<subscriptionId> b. ResourceGroupName - Name of any resource group under the subscription. c. ResourceName, ResourceType, ResourceGroupName and (optionally) ParentResource - Identifies a particular resource under the subscription.

Examples

Example 1

Remove-AzRoleAssignment -ResourceGroupName rg1 -SignInName john.doe@contoso.com -RoleDefinitionName Reader

Removes a role assignment for john.doe@contoso.com who is assigned to the Reader role at the rg1 resourcegroup scope.

Example 2

Remove-AzRoleAssignment -ObjectId 00001111-aaaa-2222-bbbb-3333cccc4444 -RoleDefinitionName Reader

Removes the role assignment to the group principal identified by the ObjectId and assigned to the Reader role. Defaults to using the current subscription as the scope to find the assignment to be deleted.

Example 3

$roleassignment = Get-AzRoleAssignment |Select-Object -First 1 -Wait
Remove-AzRoleAssignment -InputObject $roleassignment

Removes the first role assignment object which is fetched from the Get-AzRoleAssignment commandlet.
