I cannot find any documentation that describes the two LCS Organisational Roles "Admin" and "Contributor".
Can you please explain the permission differences between the two roles.

Admin means that the user is admin in the organization's O365 tenant.

Administrators can always see and manage all LCS projects that exist for their organization.

docs.microsoft.com/.../configure-lcs-security

"Users who are administrators for their organization in CustomerSource and PartnerSource will be administrators in LCS."

Hi,

what exactly do you want to know? You can actually test it yourself.

But contributors can create projects, and delete projects where they are admins.

OK, and is it now clear?

Basically we can combine my two previous messages:

- Admins have full access to all LCS projects of the organization

- Contributors have full access to all LCS projects where they are project owners (=projects that they created, or projects where a project owner made them project owners)

Can the AD groups be used for workflow assignment instead of user groups?

Hi,

that question doesn't seem to be related to your original issue at all.

Please post a new question. Thanks!
