The role is scoped to the customer side of the GDAP lifecycle. It does not grant any ability to manage partner-side configurations or broader tenant settings.
The role is suited for administrators responsible for governing which Microsoft partners hold delegated access to the tenant, making it a key role in third-party access oversight and partner relationship hygiene.
