I've gotten several emails telling me that:

The Purview Workload Content Writer role for the My Company (ID: c709....) directory was assigned outside of PIM

Assignment details:

Settings Value

User: MyFullName

Role: Purview Workload Content Writer

Assigner: PurviewRoleAssignmentMigrator

Detected on: May 14, 2026 20:28 UTC

I haven't changed anything. What's causing this?

Microsoft Security | Microsoft Purview

    What you are seeing is expected. See this announcement from Microsoft in the admin center for more information.

    MC1199765 (Updated) Microsoft Purview: Role management update https://admin.cloud.microsoft/#/MessageCenter/:/messages/MC1199765.

    Summary Microsoft Purview is updating role management by mapping certain Purview admin roles to three new Microsoft Entra roles, syncing assignments automatically to enhance security with Microsoft 365 services. Rollout begins mid-February 2026, finishing by late May 2026.
