Step 3. Assign Permissions on Infrastructure Inventory Objects

To view and work with virtual infrastructure objects in Veeam ONE, the user must have appropriate permissions on these objects set in the VMware vSphere or vCloud Director inventory.

VMware vSphere Permissions

Connect to vCenter Server or standalone host with vSphere Client and assign permissions on objects to which the user must have access.

The following table shows minimal required privileges on VMware vSphere inventory objects.

VI Inventory Object	VMware vSphere Privilege
vCenter Server (root) Data Center Cluster Host Resource Pool/vApp Datastore Cluster Datastore	Read-only
Virtual Machine	Read-only Virtual machine.Interaction.Answer question1 Virtual machine.Interaction.Console interaction1

1 Required to access VM console in Veeam ONE Client

Note:

If you assign permissions to container objects (such as hosts, resource pools or vApps), consider enabling propagation. In this case, all new child objects that might added to the container in future will become available to the user.

vCloud Director Permissions

Connect to vCloud Director and assign permissions on objects to which the user must have access.

The following table shows minimal required roles for vCloud Director inventory objects.

VI Inventory Object	vCloud Director Role
vCloud Director (root)	System Administrator
Organization	Console access only
