AGPM Roles - Limit Access using OUs

I am in the process of evaluating AGPM. I have certain security requirements. I have multiple teams that are responsible for maintaining their own GPOs. I would like to setup Editor, Reviewer and Approver Roles for each team and limit access to GPOs under their OUs. For example, I would like to setup Editor, Reviewer and Approver Roles for the Desktop Engineers for GPOs ONLY under the workstations OU. I do not want Desktop Engineers to have access to GPOs in the Servers or Domain Controllers OU. Can this be done? If so, How?

Hi,
Based on my research, AGPM does not support link management. But it can done directly in the GPMC or ADUC delegation control.
Following link for your reference:

So if I wanted to limit the Desktop Engineers to only control GPOs in the workstations OU I would open ADUC and select Delegate Control. I would then select Create a custom task to delegate and then groupPolicyContainer objects. For each group I would set the permissions as follows.

WS-GPO-Editors - Read/write
WS-GPO-Reviewers - Read
WS-GPO-Approvers - Full

I would also need to open GPMC and delegate WS-GPO-Approvers Link GPOs.

Would I need to do anything else in the AGPM software?

Hi,
Based on my research, to Limit Access using OUs, the steps mentioned above would be ok.

When setting permissions as above and I open AGPM as any of the WS-GPO-Editors, WS-GPO-Reviewers, and WS-GPO-Approvers, I receive the following error. My assumption is that I need to grant rights to the AGPM archive. Just not sure how to do that. I tried granting access using NTFS permissions but that did not help.


Could not retrieve the list of controlled GPOs.

The following error occurred:
You do not have sufficient permissions to perform this operation.
Microsoft.Agpm.AccessDeniedException (80070005)
