Auditor permissions

The Auditor administrator has read-only access to all features, and has the ability to review all access request activity:

  • Monitor appliance information
  • Review everything
  • Export object history
  • Run entitlement reports

There are two additional permission types available once the Auditor role is selected that will help provide limited auditor permissions should you prefer not to use the all-encompassing Auditor role (which incorporates both permission types):

On some pages, it may appear the administrator can edit data, but the change cannot be saved. A message like the following will display: Authorization is required for this request.
