Description of All Privileges

Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

I am looking for the definitions for each privilege. I understand how roles and privileges work, but would like a description for each one to justify why each role is being given each privilege and access level. You know, documentation.

For example, if I give someone Read access to 'SLA KPI Instance', what does that do? How about 'System Application Metadata'? These mean nothing to people who will review our security model. They need descriptions.

All my searches have turned up nothing. Can anyone point me to descriptions for each privilege?

Thanks,

Mel

Yeah, that does seem laborious. Although better than anything else I've found. Thanks!

You could cross-reference it with articles here: msdn.microsoft.com/.../gg309396.aspx

Laborious, but I don't know a better way without asking specific questions.

Thanks, but not really what I'm looking for. 'prvReadSLAKPAInstance' doesn't tell anybody what it does. I'm looking for the description, in English sentences, that answer the question, "what is SLA KPI Instance?" so that a person can make an informed judgement about which roles should be able to read, write, etc.
