Not in regards to permissions, but if you want to allow the add through a script instead of console, we used this as a basis for something we did in my organization.

I'd like to allow certain staff members to add computers to a collection. I found this article: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/c9d7531c-c8e1-4b0f-ab95-5a9ec5207e41/sccm-2012-security-to-allow-users-to-add-resource-to-a-collection?forum=configmanagersecurity<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsocial.technet.microsoft.com%2FForums%2Fen-US%2Fc9d7531c-c8e1-4b0f-ab95-5a9ec5207e41%2Fsccm-2012-security-to-allow-users-to-add-resource-to-a-collection%3Fforum%3Dconfigmanagersecurity&data=01%7C01%7Cmichael.schultz%40providence.org%7C833a4bb283a543292ab008d3ee118907%7C2e3190869a2646a3865f615bed576786%7C1&sdata=flC3GZynqHKpzZhAEP%2FMAIEgKwFzbLv4s2w3W8Ifodg%3D&reserved=0> It says the below, which is confusing me. Can someone clear this up and let me know if this is a good idea? Here is a solution that should work for you. Perform this on a test account with only the security role you are going to change for your users in question. 1. Create a new collection that is a copy of your collection limiting collection mentioned above. 2. Set the limiting collection of this new collection to something other than the limiting collection it defaults to, which is the copied collection. 3. Select the collections to which you wish to grant Add Resource permissions to and set their limiting collection to this new collection. 4. Within your Administrative user or group properties, specify this new limiting collection and the collections you wish to allow Add Resource permissions under the "Associate assigned security roles with specific security scopes and collections - don't forget to add your security scope. 5. Apply the changes and test - don't forget to restart the console of your test account. This does a couple things - it allows the Add Resource function to the specific collections you wish for the specific Administrative user/group you wish. It does NOT allow modify on the limiting collection. And it separates the specific collections you tag as being modifiable by the specified group.
