• Account access roles. These roles give access to account level operations, entities in the account both existing and to be created in the future, and creation of new entities.

• Entity access roles. These roles provide access to specific entities that are already available on the account.

To learn more, see the Identity and Access in Cloud Manager glossary. This operation replaces any existing role assignment. To completely block user's access to the account, pass an empty list, []. To get the list of available roles, run the List available roles operation.
