Updating Display Name

Hi, How do we provide user access to update their own email display name? From the Exchange Admin site, I can see there is a Roles which provide Profile Information update. How do I assigned this...

You need to configure a role assignment policy with the corresponding settings enabled, and assign it to users. Read here for details: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/permissions/role-assignment-policies?view=exchserver-2019

That is what I did.

I went to EAC, Permissions > User Roles. There is an existing default policy - Default Role Assignment Policy.
I have edited the policy by including two more roles to it: MyContactInformation andMyProfileInformation. (refer screenshot attached)

All the users are assigned with this default policy - Default Role Assignment Policy (refer screenshot attached). But when user login to their Account under OWA, the "Edit" button is not available for them to update their profile.

Thanks.

  I can confirm it works fine here. Which version of Exchange are we talking about here?
  
  In case you are talking about Exchange Online/O365, this will only work for users created directly in the cloud. Synced users will not be able to change anything.

    Yes, we are using O365/Exchange Online subscription based. Is that falls under the cloud based?
    I am not sure on "Synced users".
