## Windows 365 Administrator
2030+
2031+
Users with this role have global permissions on Windows 365 resources, when the service is present. Additionally, this role contains the ability to manage users and devices in order to associate policy, as well as create and manage groups.
2032+
2033+
This role can create and manage security groups, but does not have administrator rights over Microsoft 365 groups. That means administrators cannot update owners or memberships of Microsoft 365 groups in the organization. However, they can manage the Microsoft 365 group they create, which is a part of their end-user privileges. So, any Microsoft 365 group (not security group) they create is counted against their quota of 250.
2034+
2035+
Assign the Windows 365 Administrator role to users who need to do the following tasks:
2036+
2037+
- Manage Windows 365 Cloud PCs in Microsoft Endpoint Manager
2038+
- Enroll and manage devices in Azure AD, including assigning users and policies
2039+
- Create and manage security groups, but not role-assignable groups
2040+
- View basic properties in the Microsoft 365 admin center
2041+
- Read usage reports in the Microsoft 365 admin center
2042+
- Create and manage support tickets in Azure AD and the Microsoft 365 admin center

Users in this role can create and manage all aspects of Windows Update deployments through the Windows Update for Business deployment service. The deployment service enables users to define settings for when and how updates are deployed, and specify which updates are offered to groups of devices in their tenant. It also allows users to monitor the update progress.
