In the context of Azure Virtual Desktop, when managing role assignments for a personal desktop host pool, the resource type required is Microsoft.DesktopVirtualization/applicationGroups.
This resource type represents application groups that are part of the Azure Virtual Desktop environment. Application groups can be associated with a host pool, and they serve as the basis for assigning applications to users or groups. When you use the New-AzRoleAssignment cmdlet, it is specifically aimed at managing access roles for application groups within the context of Azure Virtual Desktop. By assigning a role at this level, you are ensuring that users can access the resources and applications granted through these groups within the personal desktop environment.
Understanding this helps clarify the importance of application groups in managing user access and permissions as part of deploying Azure Virtual Desktop infrastructures, emphasizing the role of roles in access management to enhance security and resource organization.
