    That's why we have the different admin roles? Which functionality exactly are you looking to restrict?

      Hi Vasil,

      Let us take a case of O365 Exchange Online management, Can I restrict the complete portal access and only provide access via remote powershell cmdlets for the support team to perform support activities via RBAC.

        The EAC is a special case as it's the only one that actually has a proper RBAC in place, with the UI bits updating dynamically corresponding to the underlying PowerShell cmdlets. So they will only see functionality they have access to. You can "hide" the EAC tile by simply not giving them any Office 365 admin role, but they will still be able to browse to it via the /ecp endpoint.
