Assigning Admin Roles to the CiraSync Service Account

When upgrading to CiraSync Enterprise Edition, a dedicated service account with the Global Administrator Role is required. However, after signing in to the CiraSync Enterprise Edition for the first time, the service account can be demoted by assigning the service account a custom role. This will not affect CiraSync functionality. The following guide shows how to demote the Service Account from the Global Admin Role with the old and new Admin Center.
