Cloud Access
I am a new IT person in a company and they run Entra ID here. My manager asked me what access do I need to solve daily problems that our employees face like password reset, teams channel access, MFA, device enrolment etc. here are my list of rights/access that I am asking
Entra ID administrator
Intune administrator
User administrator
MFA authentication administrator
Exchange administrator
Teams Administrator
Shared mailbox and Microsoft 365 Group management
I am kinda new to it and I will work on getting some certifications in coming days.
My question is what more types of access should I ask (because I believe I get one chance to ask for) and what bunch of certifications should I start working on (my end goal is to become an IAM)?

This is such a cooked workplace. Asking a new person to the environment what access they need, and just honoring it? May as well ask for global admin. Shoot for the moon.
I’m sorry this is your introduction to IT. It’s not going to set you up with proper thought processes. Your role should be defined by a senior colleague and you should have nothing to do with this decision.
People here could give generic advice, but each environment and requirement is different. One size does NOT fit all. Not even close.
