Assigning a Definition

Turbo360 allows users to assign a policy or initiative to a scope. An assignment is a policy definition or initiative that is assigned to a specific scope. The scope refers to all the resources, resource groups, subscriptions, or management groups.

Assignment structure

The assignment contains the following elements:

• Policy definition
• Display name
• Description
• Enforcement mode
• Assigned by
• Parameters
• Identity
• Remediation tasks
• Non-compliance messages
