Simple Services: Activate Services that add a user to an AD Group and that don’t contain custom configuration that manipulates objects or Services other than AD Group membership.
The rights required for complex Services that manage more than AD Group membership will need to be based on the actions the Service performs when it is provisioned or de-provisioned. Please contact your Activate provider to determine the rights required.
