Understanding Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) in SharePoint Online
Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) is a sophisticated method designed to streamline the management of user permissions within software environments, including SharePoint Online. At its core, RBAC allows administrators to assign system access to users based on their role within an organization rather than on an individual basis. This approach simplifies the process of granting appropriate access levels by grouping permissions into roles that correspond to job functions.
