More about this script

Why use this template?

Use this PowerShell template when you need to export active directory role assignments. It can be previewed in the Builder; Pro access is required to generate it for your own environment.

The template uses Microsoft.Graph.Identity.Governance and requires RoleManagement.Read.Directory. Output: CSV report. Level: Advanced. Action: Read-only. Risk: Low.

Review before running

The script remains preview-only until Pro access is enabled. Review it before running it, and test it outside production first. “Read-only” describes the script itself; anything you add around it can still change data.

Preview the script

  1. Open the template in the PowerShell Builder.
  2. Review the purpose, requirements, permissions, output and risk.
  3. Activate Pro when you are ready to generate the full script, then test it outside production.

Pro templates remain previewable before purchase or activation. No tenant connection is required. When you generate a Pro script, only the configuration values needed for that template are sent to Opselith after license validation.Preview Export Entra directory role assignments →

How to use this result

Use this report when you need a scope-focused view of active Entra directory role assignments and principal types.

When this helps

  • Review tenant-wide versus scoped directory-role assignments.
  • Separate user, group and service-principal role assignments during privileged-access analysis.

How to read the result

  • DirectoryScopeId identifies where the role assignment applies; '/' commonly represents the whole directory.
  • PrincipalType helps distinguish user, group and service-principal assignments but does not resolve the business owner of the principal.

Things to check

  • This is a current-assignment report and does not replace the PIM schedule report for eligible access.
  • Role scope must be interpreted together with the role definition and the resource it governs.

What to do next: Investigate broad scopes and unfamiliar principals, then compare privileged access with PIM and ownership records.
