    Vorbereitungen

    Role required: ais_admin, plus ais_high_security_admin to view full user mapping permission details

    Warum und wann dieser Vorgang ausgeführt wird

    The User mappings permissions list for an external content connector shows user and group access permissions retrieved from the connector's source system, along with details of how those permissions are mapped to your ServiceNow AI Platform instance's users. Review this information when you want to verify user and group permission mappings for your external content connector.

    To view the user mappings permissions list, you must elevate to the ais_high_security_admin role. If you don't elevate or don't have this role, you can see the number of user mappings permissions created for the external content connector, but can't see details of those user mappings permissions.
    Hinweis:
    The following external content connectors don't retrieve user or group access permissions. You can't run user mapping permission crawls for these connectors.

    The Atlassian Confluence Cloud external content connector only retrieves permissions for Confluence Cloud users who have made their email addresses visible to all users.
