Hi,

I am to delete/remove users from the "User Access Adminstrator" role, as they were assigned to this role directly at the beginning of the prosject. Problem is that I am not able to remove them all. I can remove my self and one other user (which is not eligible for Global Admin) with this script:

Remove-AzRoleAssignment -SignInName <username@ssss .com> `
-RoleDefinitionName "User Access Administrator" -Scope "/"

However, the 3 remaining (which is eligible for global admin), I receive the following error:

I als o tried running the script with my Security admin role, which did not help. Scope for these user are "Root (Inherited).

    Hello @Linda Renate Andersen . Try Elevating access for a Global Administrator, this will assign him the User Access Administrator role in Azure at root scope which should allow you to remove the other users assignments.
