Permissions for Azure Archiver Appliance

Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 allows you to use the Azure archiver appliance when the product copies backed-up data between different instances of Azure Blob Storage or to Azure Blob Storage Archive. To enable usage of the Azure archiver appliance, the Microsoft Azure service account is required.

A user account that you use to create Azure AD application for the Microsoft Azure service account must be assigned the following roles:

Application Administrator
Owner of the Microsoft Azure subscription that you selected for the Microsoft Azure service account

Make sure that this user account is not a Contributor of the Microsoft Azure subscription that you selected for the Microsoft Azure service account.

If you prefer to use a custom application of your own for the Microsoft Azure service account, the following are minimal required permissions for this Azure AD application:
