Deny Assignments for Control Plane RBAC

What problem are you trying to solve?

Focus on the what and why of the need you have, not the how you'd like it solved.

Currently Atlas does not allow deny assignments to block users performing certain actions/permissions even if a role assignment grants access.

What would you like to see happen?

Describe the desired outcome or enhancement.

We want to block certain permissions even if a role assignment grants access. For example, we want to remove project data access rights from Project Owner role.

Why is this important to you or your team?

Explain how the request adds value or solves a business need.

Deny acts as a fail-safe guardrail to protect sensitive data and critical functions.

What steps, if any, are you taking today to manage this problem?
