Permissions

Choose the permission or permissions marked as least privileged for this API. Use a higher privileged permission or permissions only if your app requires it. For details about delegated and application permissions, see Permission types. To learn more about these permissions, see the permissions reference.

Permission type Least privileged permissions Higher privileged permissions
Delegated (work or school account) eDiscovery.Read.All eDiscovery.ReadWrite.All
Delegated (personal Microsoft account) Not supported. Not supported.
Application eDiscovery.Read.All eDiscovery.ReadWrite.All

Important

In delegated scenarios with work or school accounts, the signed-in user must be assigned a supported Microsoft Purview role through one of the following options:

  • eDiscovery Manager. This role allows members to create and manage eDiscovery cases they create, including creating custodians, holds, searches, and other case management tasks. However, eDiscovery Managers can only create and manage the cases they create. This is the least privileged option for managing their own cases.
  • eDiscovery Administrator. This role provides all the permissions of eDiscovery Manager, plus the ability to access and manage all eDiscovery cases in the organization, configure eDiscovery settings, and manage any case after adding themselves as a member.

Additional roles that provide write access to eDiscovery features:

  • Compliance Administrator. This role includes Case Management, Compliance Search, and Hold permissions.
  • Organization Management. This role includes Case Management, Compliance Search, Hold, and Search And Purge permissions.

The eDiscovery Manager and eDiscovery Administrator roles are part of the Microsoft Purview role groups and provide access to eDiscovery features through role-based access control (RBAC).

For more information about eDiscovery permissions and roles, see Assign permissions in eDiscovery.
