Assign role to group

zones.groups.roles.add(strgroup_id, RoleAddParams**kwargs) -> RoleAssignment
POST/zones/{zoneId}/groups/{groupId}/roles

Assigns a role to the group; members inherit it. Provide role_id, or role_identifier with owner_type. Returns the shared role-assignment shape with principal_type set to group.

ParametersExpand Collapse
zone_id: str
group_id: str
owner_type: Optional[Literal["platform", "customer"]]

Owner type of the role to assign. Required with role_identifier (an identifier is unique only per owner type); must be omitted with role_id.

Accepts one of the following:
"platform"
"customer"
role_id: Optional[str]

ID of the role to assign. Provide exactly one of role_id or role_identifier; owner_type must be omitted when role_id is used.

role_identifier: Optional[str]

Role identifier: a lowercase slug (letters and digits separated by single hyphens or underscores), unique per owner type within a zone. Role identifiers surface in policy evaluation, so the slug restriction keeps them unambiguous in policy text.

minLength1
maxLength255
scope_id: Optional[str]

The ID of the resource to scope the grant to. Provide together with scope_type, or omit both for an unscoped assignment. When scope_type is zone, this must reference a different zone in the same organization.

minLength1
scope_type: Optional[str]

The kind of resource to scope the grant to (e.g. zone). Provide together with scope_id, or omit both for an unscoped assignment (applies to the owning zone itself). Only platform roles on the org zone may carry a scope.
