Permissions

(Required) Make sure that you have the permissions

To deploy Parallels RAS using Azure Marketplace, you need at least contributor permissions on the Azure Subscription you are deploying to.

(Optional) Add a provider

Deploying Parallels RAS using Azure Marketplace allows you to automatically create and configure a provider inside Parallels RAS. If you add a provider, Parallels RAS can later communicate with Azure or Azure Virtual Desktop to create and maintain your environment's resources.

To configure a Parallels RAS provider as part of the deployment, you need to have the Owner role on the Azure Subscription and the Global Administrator role in Entra ID. This is necessary because the deployment creates an app registration and assigns permissions to it in Entra ID and on resource groups.

Creating a Parallels RAS provider during the deployment is entirely optional. You can also do it manually after the initial deployment.

For more information on deploying the Azure Virtual Desktop provider or Azure provider in Parallels RAS after the initial deployment, see:
