- You must grant Azure Virtual Desktop access to power on session host VMs, check their status, and report diagnostic information. You must have the `Microsoft.Authorization/roleAssignments/write` permission on your subscriptions in order to assign the role-based access control (RBAC) role for the Azure Virtual Desktop service principal on those subscriptions. This is part of **User Access Administrator** and **Owner** built in roles.
