You add a permission to a federation access group to define the actions that can be performed on the global entitlements and global sessions in the federation access group and the administrator users or groups that can perform the actions.

When you add a permission, Horizon Console prompts you to select a role to define the actions that can be performed and a user or group that can perform the actions.

The role that you select must contain at least one object-specific privilege that is applicable to federation access groups. Roles that contain only global privileges or access-group specific privileges cannot be applied to federation access groups. For information about creating custom roles for federation access groups, see Manage Global Entitlements and Global Sessions in Federation Access Groups.
