1. Assign Roles to Users
To assign admin roles to users, go to the Users page and click the Set user roles icon next to the user you want to update. You can filter the users by their role status using the Role column filter. Users with admin roles - whether assigned through Microsoft user roles or on this page - will be marked with a green role icon. Users without any roles will be shown with a grey role icon.
