| 21 | +# Azure AD roles that aren't shown in the Azure portal |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +Not every role in Azure AD is available in the Azure portal, for a number of reasons. Some roles are still works in progress. Some roles have changed their names in one place but not in another. Some roles can't (because of technical limitations) or shouldn't (because of possible ill effects) be used. The following table can help you sort it all out. |
