Hi community,

I'm trying to disable account of user when an item is modified in SP list.

I tried "update user" action from power automate but got the error "Insufficient privileges to complete the operation".

Error

I have access to Azure AD.

Any idea which Permission I need to perform this action.

Thanks,
R

Global Reader has only privileges to read not to modify any users - so you'd need at least User Administrator rights to modify a user.

No I don't have separate account for admin work.

I tried " remove member from group " action as well but no luck , facing same error.

I have global reader role assigned.

Do you have a separate account for your admin/normal logins?

If yes, you should use your admin account as the connection reference for the Azure actions

Could you try that and let us know how it goes?

Cheers,
