Managing User Accounts

Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure controls access to its functionality with the help of user roles. A role defines what operations users can perform and what range of data is available to them in the Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure UI.

There are 3 user roles that you can assign to users working with Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure:

  • Portal Administrator — can perform all configuration actions, and can also act as a Portal Operator and Restore Operator.
  • Portal Operator — can create, edit and start backup policies, manage the protected data, perform all restore operations and view session statistics.
  • Restore Operator — can only perform restore operations and view session statistics.

Important

The list of portal users may display user accounts with the Company Administrator role assigned — these accounts are intended to be used for the integration of Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure and Veeam Service Provider Console, and are created using the Veeam Service Provider Console plug-in. It is not recommended that you perform any actions with these users.

The following table describes the functionality available to users with different roles in the Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure UI.
