Need of System Administrator or equivalent access for Security Roles.

Posted on by 4

Hi Team,

I got the work to perform some technical tasks evaluation on security roles, where I need to create the security roles and manage with the access of row level and column level permission. As for this purpose I need the System Admin access but as it admin access so we are finding another way to do that. So I looked for "https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/admin/security-roles-privileges" this specific site where it is written like "Make sure you have the System Administrator security role or equivalent permissions". So I was looking for like what kind of "equivalent permissions" other than system administrator I can get to perform my tasks. I am attaching the screenshot and the link for your reference.

Thank you

    @AakashdeepSohal what sort of changes you are planning to perform? You have another role "System Customizer" which is slightly equal to system admin. Like the MS doc mentioned it all depends on the type of customization you are performing.

    Hi @gowrihalan04, I need to perform the actions like creating new security roles and assigning them it to different user, giving row level and column level security permissions to different users. So can a "System customizer" role will help to perform all these tasks?

    @AakashdeepSohal So you need to configure security role and create Field security Profile.

    I see the system customizer role has all access on Field security profile but no access to create security role.

     

    Best Solution Would be to create a custom security role and provide your required access and use it.
