  • B. Contributor on both subscriptions
  • C. User Access Administrator at MG1

User Access Administrator permits role assignment management without general resource modification rights. At MG1, it is inherited by both subscriptions.
Question #7Topic: Key Vault RBAC

Key Vault KV1 uses RBAC. App1 must read secret values, while User1 may manage vault settings without reading secrets. Which roles should be assigned?
