Create unifiedRoleAssignment

Namespace: microsoft.graph

Create a new unifiedRoleAssignment object.

This API is available in the following national cloud deployments.

Global service	US Government L4	US Government L5 (DOD)	China operated by 21Vianet
✅	✅	✅	✅

Permissions

One of the following permissions is required to call this API. To learn more, including how to choose permissions, see Permissions.

For the directory (Microsoft Entra ID) provider

Permission type	Permissions (from least to most privileged)
Delegated (work or school account)	RoleManagement.ReadWrite.Directory
Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Not supported.
Application	RoleManagement.ReadWrite.Directory

Important

In delegated scenarios with work or school accounts, the signed-in user must be assigned a supported Microsoft Entra role or a custom role with a supported role permission. Privileged Role Administrator is the least privileged role supported for this operation.

For the entitlement management provider

Permission type	Permissions (from least to most privileged)
Delegated (work or school account)	EntitlementManagement.ReadWrite.All
Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Not supported.
Application	EntitlementManagement.ReadWrite.All

HTTP request

Create a role assignment for the directory provider:

POST /roleManagement/directory/roleAssignments

Create a role assignment for the entitlement management provider:

POST /roleManagement/entitlementManagement/roleAssignments

Request headers

Name	Description
Authorization	Bearer {token}. Required. Learn more about authentication and authorization.

Request body

In the request body, supply a JSON representation of a unifiedRoleAssignment object.

You can specify the following properties when creating a unifiedRoleAssignment.

Property	Type	Description
appScopeId	String	Required. Identifier of the app specific scope when the assignment scope is app specific. The scope of an assignment determines the set of resources for which the principal has been granted access. App scopes are scopes that are defined and understood by a resource application only. For the entitlement management provider, use this property to specify a catalog, for example /AccessPackageCatalog/beedadfe-01d5-4025-910b-84abb9369997. Either appScopeId or directoryScopeId must be specified.
directoryScopeId	String	Required. Identifier of the directory object representing the scope of the assignment. The scope of an assignment determines the set of resources for which the principal has been granted access. Directory scopes are shared scopes stored in the directory that are understood by multiple applications, unlike app scopes that are defined and understood by a resource application only. For the directory (Microsoft Entra ID) provider, this property supports the following formats: / for tenant-wide scope /administrativeUnits/{administrativeunit-ID} to scope to an administrative unit /{application-objectID} to scope to a resource application For entitlement management provider, / for tenant-wide scope. To scope to an access package catalog, use the appScopeId property. Either appScopeId or directoryScopeId must be specified.
principalId	String	Required. Identifier of the principal to which the assignment is granted.
roleDefinitionId	String	Identifier of the unifiedRoleDefinition the assignment is for. Read-only. Supports $filter (eq, in).

Response

If successful, this method returns a 201 Created response code and a new unifiedRoleAssignment object in the response body.
