Initialization

The recommended way to create new instances of this class is via the get_role_definition method for subscription, resource group and resource objects.

Technically role assignments and role definitions are Azure resources, and could be implemented as subclasses of az_resource. AzureRMR treats them as distinct, due to limited RBAC functionality currently supported. In particular, role definitions are read-only: you can retrieve a definition, but not modify it, nor create new definitions.
