Identity Administration portal administrative rights

The following table describes the administrative rights you can assign to a role. Users cannot log in to the Identity Administration portal unless they have at least one of the following administrative rights.

If an administrator attempts to perform a task in the Identity Administration portal for which they do not have the associated administrative right, the Identity Administration portal displays an error message. In addition, the Identity Administration portal does not display data if it’s not pertinent to the administrator’s rights. For example, if the administrator has the Application Management right only, that user is not allowed to change policy settings.

Some administrative rights also grant reporting rights, but only for data that the user has been granted rights to read.
