Explanation

Power BI workspace roles in ascending privilege order are: Viewer, Contributor, Member, and Admin. Viewers can only consume content. Contributors can create and edit content but cannot manage membership. Members can add other Members and Viewers to the workspace, which satisfies the requirement. Admins can do everything Members can, plus remove the workspace, change other Admins, and perform higher-privilege actions. Assigning Admin would grant unnecessary elevated permissions, violating the principle of least privilege. Therefore, the Member role is the minimum role that grants the ability to add members to the workspace.
