Originally posted by Microsoft Oct 31, 2023 Uncategorized 0 Comments

Additional roles will be added to Microsoft Purview built-in role groups for Compliance Administrator, Information Protection related role groups, and Privacy Management related role groups.

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 184899

When this will happen:

Standard Release: We will begin rolling out in early November and complete by early December 2023.

How this will affect your organization:

This change will not have an impact on standard end users. Admins will see new roles within specific built-in role groups, these roles will enable them to manage additional data types in the future.

What you need to do to prepare:

This change will be automatic for built-in Microsoft Purview role groups for Compliance Administrator, Information Protection related role groups, and Privacy Management related role groups.

Microsoft Purview has several built-in role groups which contain roles to help admins perform common functions for Microsoft Purview: you are encouraged to regularly review and adjust your role group memberships if needed. Microsoft Purview supports custom role groups as well: If built-in role groups don’t meet the specific needs of your organization, you can create custom role group(s) in Microsoft Purview and populate it with the desired roles and group members.
