Azure Container Registry roles and permissions

The Azure Container Registry service supports a set of built-in Azure roles that provide different levels of permissions to an Azure container registry. Use Azure role-based access control (Azure RBAC) to assign specific permissions to users, service principals, or other identities that need to interact with a registry, for example to pull or push container images. You can also define custom roles with fine-grained permissions to a registry for different operations.

Role/Permission Access Resource Manager Create/delete registry Push image Pull image Delete image data Change policies Sign images
Owner X X X X X X
Contributor X X X X X X
Reader X X
AcrPush X X
AcrPull X
AcrDelete X
AcrImageSigner X

Assign roles

See Steps to add a role assignment for high-level steps to add a role assignment to an existing user, group, service principal, or managed identity. You can use the Azure portal, Azure CLI, Azure PowerShell, or other Azure tools.

When creating a service principal, you also configure its access and permissions to Azure resources such as a container registry. For an example script using the Azure CLI, see Azure Container Registry authentication with service principals.

Differentiate users and services

Any time permissions are applied, a best practice is to provide the most limited set of permissions for a person, or service, to accomplish a task. The following permission sets represent a set of capabilities that may be used by humans and headless services.

CI/CD solutions

When automating docker build commands from CI/CD solutions, you need docker push capabilities. For these headless service scenarios, we recommend assigning the AcrPush role. This role, unlike the broader Contributor role, prevents the account from performing other registry operations or accessing Azure Resource Manager.

Container host nodes

Likewise, nodes running your containers need the AcrPull role, but shouldn't require Reader capabilities.

Visual Studio Code Docker extension

For tools like the Visual Studio Code Docker extension, additional resource provider access is required to list the available Azure container registries. In this case, provide your users access to the Reader or Contributor role. These roles allow docker pull, docker push, az acr list, az acr build, and other capabilities.

Access Resource Manager

Azure Resource Manager access is required for the Azure portal and registry management with the Azure CLI. For example, to get a list of registries by using the az acr list command, you need this permission set.

Create and delete registry

The ability to create and delete Azure container registries.

Push image

The ability to docker push an image, or push another supported artifact such as a Helm chart, to a registry. Requires authentication with the registry using the authorized identity.

Pull image

The ability to docker pull a non-quarantined image, or pull another supported artifact such as a Helm chart, from a registry. Requires authentication with the registry using the authorized identity.

Delete image data

The ability to delete container images, or delete other supported artifacts such as Helm charts, from a registry.

Change policies

The ability to configure policies on a registry. Policies include image purging, enabling quarantine, and image signing.

Sign images

The ability to sign images, usually assigned to an automated process, which would use a service principal. This permission is typically combined with push image to allow pushing a trusted image to a registry. For details, see Content trust in Azure Container Registry.

Custom roles

As with other Azure resources, you can create custom roles with fine-grained permissions to Azure Container Registry. Then assign the custom roles to users, service principals, or other identities that need to interact with a registry.

To determine which permissions to apply to a custom role, see the list of Microsoft.ContainerRegistry actions, review the permitted actions of the built-in ACR roles, or run the following command:

az provider operation show --namespace Microsoft.ContainerRegistry

To define a custom role, see Steps to create a custom role.

Note

In tenants configured with Azure Resource Manager private link, Azure Container Registry supports wildcard actions such as Microsoft.ContainerRegistry/*/read or Microsoft.ContainerRegistry/registries/*/write in custom roles, granting access to all matching actions. In a tenant without an ARM private link, specify all required registry actions individually in a custom role.

Example: Custom role to import images

For example, the following JSON defines the minimum actions for a custom role that permits importing images to a registry.

{
   "assignableScopes": [
     "/subscriptions/<optional, but you can limit the visibility to one or more subscriptions>"
   ],
   "description": "Can import images to registry",
   "Name": "AcrImport",
   "permissions": [
     {
       "actions": [
         "Microsoft.ContainerRegistry/registries/push/write",
         "Microsoft.ContainerRegistry/registries/pull/read",
         "Microsoft.ContainerRegistry/registries/read",
         "Microsoft.ContainerRegistry/registries/importImage/action"
       ],
       "dataActions": [],
       "notActions": [],
       "notDataActions": []
     }
   ],
   "roleType": "CustomRole"
 }

To create or update a custom role using the JSON description, use the Azure CLI, Azure Resource Manager template, Azure PowerShell, or other Azure tools. Add or remove role assignments for a custom role in the same way that you manage role assignments for built-in Azure roles.
