Steps to modify REST API permissions

Though we suggest providing all the recommended permissions, organizational requirements might not allow this. In this section, you will learn how to modify the REST API permissions for an already configured tenant. If you are looking for a way to configure a tenant with only the permissions you require, please configure it manually.

Prerequisite: The tenant should have been successfully configured in ADManager Plus with REST API enabled for it. To learn how to configure a tenant in ADManager Plus and enable REST API, click here.
