Insufficient privileges to complete the operation - Adding User to Security Group

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 6

I'm building out a Input flow that takes a user and adds them to Security Groups. I've narrowed down the issue being that the flow fails when the Security Group has "Azure AD roles can be assigned to the group" as Yes

 

In my example below, Azure Test Group 2 has the Azure AD Roles option disabled while Azure Test Group has it enabled. We need this enabled as we have the role Azure AD joined device local administrator assigned to it for use with intune.

 

I am the creator of the group, owner of the group, and a Global Administrator of our tenant. Any ideas how to get privileges for this?

    Hi @John-Admin ,

     

    It's a known limitation.

    Thank you soooo much, I had no idea it was just a limitation and not something I was doing wrong.
