Veritas Data Insight Administrator's Guide

Configuring an administrator account for Data Insight

Data Insight uses a Global administrator account to discover the site collections and scan metadata and a SharePoint administrator account to fetch the access events from the configured SharePoint Online account. Global administrator accounts must have full control over the site collections that you want Data Insight to monitor. You must configure the Global administrator, as owner for team site collections, on the Office 365 interface and assign the administrative privileges for the target site collections.

The SharePoint administrator account collects metadata about site collection content, and gathers audit data from SQL Server databases for SharePoint when it is assigned administrative privileges for the target site collections. It must also have full control permissions on the configured site collections and the site collections that are incrementally included to the SharePoint account. For team site collections, the SharePoint administrator should be an owner.

The Minimum Privilege user has access to all features in the Admin center and can perform all tasks in the Office 365 Admin center.
