I am trying to delete the ITIM A/C created for a user, however it doesn't let me delete it, an error is displayed "following accounts cannot be deleted since they are governed by automatic provisioning policy".
Please let me know what is the reason for it and how to correct it.
The reason is that there is a Provisioning Policy defined in your environment with the following parameters :
One of the entitlements of the Provisioning Policy is an ITIM Account (possibly with some entitlement parameters)
The provisioning option for this entitlement is set to Automatic
The role membership of the provisioning policy either is a specific role that your user has or applies to all users in the organization.
What the above mean is that there is a provisioning policy that says "All the users that have this role MUST have an ITIM account". This is why you cannot manually delete the ITIM Account for that person.
It's not about correcting, but rather on figuring out what you want to achieve there. You have several options but first you need to take a step back and understand the reason instead of just attempting to fix the symptom. Why should this user not have an ITIM Account ?
IF there is a role that gives him this account you need to figure out which role is that and remove the role from the person. Then, the Provisioning Policy enforcement will remove the ITIM Account ( oversimplifying here assuming there are no other PPs that apply to the person and have an ITIM Account as entitlement)
If , on the other hand, the provisioning policy applies to everyone and you found out now that some of them should not have an account or that you should be able to remove accounts from them, you either need to make the provision option manual (this means everyone CAN have an account but they will need to request it or get it provisioned by someone/some process) or change the membership of the policy to a more exclusive role that contains only the persons who should have an ITIM Account.
EDIT
You would need to go a little bit back and try to understand the notions of Provisioning Policies in the context of ITIM and RBAC in general. This is not the place to analyze the topic :) However, shortly and for the question at hand
The ITIM Account is not necessarily mapped 1:1 to every ITIM person. ITIM Persons are the entities that are managed by your Identity Management System (ITIM) and they might have ITIM accounts, that is accounts on the ITIM Service that is predefined in ITIM.
The ITIM Account is the account that gives access to the ITIM Administrative console and the Self Service UI, not all persons need this/should have this.
The reason why as you say, the user got an ITIM Account when you created the user, is that there is a Provisioning Policy that has the ITIM Service as entitlement and is set to automatic. This says that all ITIM users MUST have an ITIM account. This is why you can't remove the ITIM account by itself because it contradicts the Provisioning Policy that is in place.
Reason of not deleting account is automatic provisioning policy which is not allowing to delete itim account. Make the provisioning policy from automatic to manual then only it will allow deletion of accounts.

Trying to enforce that only an app can deploy changes to our team's azure functions so I want to disable a user from being able to web deploy changes.
Background:
The deploy app is triggered in a build pipeline, once changes have been signed off in code review.
There are 2 ways
WAY - 1
You can choose Reader in order to make the user not to have certain permissions. To set RBAC rules for certain users.
For assigning the role for resource scope you can directly do it from azure portal itself. This is the procedure that you can follow.
Select the resource that you want to assign.
Under Manage, select Roles to see the list of roles for Azure resources.
Select a member or group you want to assign to the role (READER) and then click Select.
For more information you can refer it from HERE.
WAY - 2
Add permissions for the users in Azure pipeline.
From within your project, select Pipelines > Pipelines. Select the All tab, and then select the more actions menu then Manage security.
On the permissions dialog box, make sure the following Role (READER) permissions are set to Allow.
For more information you can refer Pipelines user permissions - Azure Pipelines | Microsoft Docs
I want to implement Azure File share for my network, but I can't find any possibility to set up user specific access permissions. There are some pre-built groups, which are for no use in this scenario, but I found a MS page recommending using Windows ACLs, but how can I proceed with setting user specific permissions, when I want to assign different permissions to different folders/files to different users, who are part of the same Administrator group in AD?
Problem solved! You just need to remove permissions inheritance and remove all inherited security groups/users permissions and add your own users or custom defined groups.
I'm trying to apply the 'Application Administrator'role to a service principal to allow it to create other service principals in AD. I would have assumed that having the ability to manage all aspects of app registrations etc as explained in the docs here: https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/azure-docs/blob/master/articles/active-directory/users-groups-roles/directory-assign-admin-roles.md would have allowed me to do this but i still cannot create new service principals in this way?
It looks as if it has created when looking in AD App Registrations but errors out with insufficient privileges
I have tried several approaches through bash & powershell, trying to create the AD application first then creating a service principal from that application id, also tried with the 'Global Admin' role and that works as expected however we're trying to limit as much as possible.
The command i'm trying to run in bash is
az ad sp create-for-rbac -n $spn_name --skip-assignment
And the equivalent in powershell
New-AzAdServicePrincipal -ApplicationId $appid
From an SPN with only the 'Application Administrator' role assigned.
Creating service principal failed for appid 'http://test-spn1'. Trace followed:
{Trace JSON}
Insufficient privileges to complete the operation.
To grant an application the ability to create, edit and delete all aspects of apps (both Application objects and ServicePrincipal objects, represented in the portal under App Registrations and Enterprise Apps, respectively), you should consider the following two app-only permissions (instead of the directory role):
Application.ReadWrite.All - Create Application and ServicePrincipal objects and manage any Application and ServicePrincipal objects.
Application.ReadWrite.OwnedBy - Create Application and ServicePrincipal objects (and automatically get set as owner), and manage Application and ServicePrincipal objects it is owner of (either because it created them, or because it was assigned as an owner).
These permissions are pretty close to what the Application Administrator directory role allows for users. They're available for both Azure AD Graph API (which is the API used by the Azure CLI, the Azure AD PowerShell module (AzureAD), and the Azure PowerShell module (Az)), and Microsoft Graph API (which you should not use for production scenarios, as the application and servicePrincipal entitles are still in beta). The permissions are documented here:
* https://learn.microsoft.com/graph/permissions-reference#application-resource-permissions
Warning: Both of these permissions are very high privilege. By being able to manage Application and ServicePrincipal objects, they can add credentials for those objects (keyCredentials and passwordCredentials) and in doing so, exercise any access which has been granted to those other apps. If an app granted Application.ReadWrite.All is compromised, pretty much all apps are compromised.
Say I have two user accounts on my computer. One admin, one standard user. If I then use sudo and other things which need admin rights from my Standard user account, install a lot of different packages and just experiment a lot with that user account, and then decide to delete the account at some point, will there be any effects for my admin user account later? is i possible that this will change certain files in my admin account etc.?
I am new to SonarQube and trying to setup up a proper access control, with requirements as follows:
We have a few project areas, each area should have someone able to
manage their area, such as creating new projects and manage the
boards, not sure exactly what. This is something like project area
administrators.
A few administrators can do anything.
Integrate to AD
A few questions:
In a few places like this link: http://www.sonarsource.com/products/features/security/, I see this role based method, but I can't find these default roles, "SonarSource products come with three project-specific roles – project administrators, project users and project code viewers" anywhere in the system. Right now, I am using the community edition I guess without a license. Is there any more detailed document on that?
I kind of understand the default Global Permissions and Project Permissions. In my case, shall I create e.g. three groups in AD, sonar-administrators,sonar-project-administrators, sonar-users to map to the default groups?
I notice the following: right now I don't have the above AD groups, when I integrate to AD, I can login with my domain id/password, but once logout/in, the group information I added to the local user gone. I guess it sych with AD. So to use AD, I have to create these groups in AD?

Access control in SonarQube is managed through Global Permissions and Project Permissions. Each permission can be granted to user(s) and/or to group(s). The documentation you pointed at is quite outdated, read the Authorization page for the most up to date details.
AD/LDAP integration is a different topic, documented here. With group mapping, group membership stays managed in AD but will be replicated in SonarQube when users log in (the AD groups must first be created in SonarQube with the same name).
To your example: if AD users belonging to group foo deserve to administer your SonarQube, just create group foo in SonarQube, and (in the Global Permissions settings) give Administer System permission to group foo.
