User Roles

Veeam Data Cloud provides built-in roles that you can assign to Veeam Data Cloud users. User roles define the operations that the user can perform, including backup, restore and user management. You can assign a role with access to your entire Veeam Data Cloud organization or a specific workload, such as Microsoft Entra ID or Salesforce.

Veeam Data Cloud Organization Roles

You can assign the following roles to users to allow them to work with your Veeam Data Cloud organization.

  • OrganizationAdmin — can manage users and perform all configuration actions, backup and restore operations. This role gives a user access to all workloads and tenants. The first user invited to your Veeam Data Cloud organization becomes OrganizationAdmin.
  • OrganizationViewer — can view the lists of Veeam Data Cloud users and tenants. This role is granted for all Veeam Data Cloud users.
