SC-300 Certification Practice Question #56

Question

You have an Azure subscription named Sub1 that contains a user named User1.

You need to ensure that User1 can purchase a Microsoft Entra Permissions Management license for Sub1. The solution must follow the principle of least privilege.

Which role should you assign to User1?

Accepted Answer

The task is specifically "purchase a license," and the requirement stresses least privilege. The Microsoft Entra "Least privileged roles by task" reference maps the "Try or buy subscription" task directly to **Billing Administrator**, which matches both the official Suggested Answer and the 25-vote community consensus. The dissenting A (Global Administrator) answers cite an older version of the product-roles doc that has since been updated; even if GA can also purchase, it is far broader than required and so fails the least-privilege test. C and D are eliminated because they govern managing the service or Azure resource access, not buying the license. Confidence 90 reflects unanimous Suggested + Most Voted + MS Learn agreement with only stale, self-retracted dissent.
