Global Admin Role Requirement for Explorer Restores over Cloud Connect

Post by EricinIT »

Hi,

There are other posts on this stating that it is a requirement for the Global Admin role being needed for Explorer restores over Cloud Connect. However, I'd like to request a feature as this shouldn't be needed. It could use the Restore Operator roles configured in the product to check if the user has the permission needed. If restoring a PST of a mailbox to your desktop, it never needs to go into M365. In fact, if it's not over cloud connect, Veeam Backup for M365 using the Explorer allows you to restore a PST to your desktop without the Global Admin role. I understand it is authenticating to the M365 tenant to verify the user has permissions in the tenant. However, the user shouldn't need Global Admin if they're not actually restoring back into the M365 tenant.

Eric
