How do I update admin rights on portals?

    Hi @Anonymous,

     

    Could you clarify what you are trying to achieve? Are you trying to assign portal users to a specific web role, or trying to modify what permissions an existing web role, or something else?

    Hi @ChrisPiasecki,

     

    Thank you for your response. My initial goal was to get admin rights to be able to see the upload button to upload files to Web Files.  It seems I now have admin rights. I also went in to Azure Active Directory to update my privileges. At present, I am unable to edit my Portal apps. The edit item is greyed out.

    I think the upload button others provided screenshots of may have been the button from XRM Toolbox. As I have not installed XRM Toolbox, I was never going to see that button. In any case, I now am unable to edit my Portal apps. I would like to know where to configure access.

    Global readers have read-only access to admin centers, while Global admins have unlimited access to edit all settings. Users assigned other roles are more limited in what they can see and do.
