Microsoft recommends that you use the unified RBAC API instead of this API. The unified RBAC API provides more functionality and flexibility. For more information, see Create unifiedRoleAssignment.

You can use both the object ID and template ID of the directoryRole with this API. The template ID of a built-in role is immutable and can be seen in the role description on the Microsoft Entra admin center. For details, see Role template IDs.

Choose the permission or permissions marked as least privileged for this API. Use a higher privileged permission or permissions only if your app requires it.
