About SharePoint Online account monitoring

The SharePoint Online storage hierarchy consists of account, site collection, sites, or document or picture library. Data Insight logically maps to these descendants as filers, repository, and folders or files.

Data Insight scans the site collections and the sites in the hierarchy to collect the metadata properties such as the file creation date or created by.

Data Insight scans the sites and document libraries available in a SharePoint Online account.

You must perform the following steps to enable Data Insight to monitor a SharePoint Online account:

  • Configure an administrator account in SharePoint Online (in Office 365); make sure that this administrator account has full control over the site collections and is an owner for team site collections. Data Insight uses this account to impersonate a user account to query the site collections.

  • Make sure that the site collections are configured for the SharePoint Online account. You can configure Data Insight to automatically discover the site collections.

  • When adding a SharePoint Online account, Data Insight excludes the following site collections from getting discovered.

    • <companyname>.sharepoint.com/portals/community

    • <companyname>.sharepoint.com/search

    • <companyname>.sharepoint.com/sites/CompliancePolicyCenter

    • <companyname>-my.sharepoint.com

Prerequisites for configuring SharePoint Online account

For Data Insight to access the SharePoint Online account, make sure that the following prerequisites are met:

  • Ensure you have sufficient network connectivity for configuration.

  • Ensure that you are aware of the SharePoint Online Account Administration Center Site URL that you want Data Insight to monitor.

  • The Minimum Privileged user account is configured in the Office 365 admin center. This account should have administrative privileges on the target site collections and should be an owner for team site collections.

  • Enable auditing in Microsoft 365 Admin Center.

    To enable auditing, in Microsoft 365 Admin Center navigate to Security and Compliance > Search and investigation > Audit log search. Click Start recording user and admin activities.

    Note that it takes 24 hours for the audit logs to start appearing on the Audit log search page.
