Account role

Last published : Apr 17, 2026
Available Advanced eDiscovery tabs: Investigations and Administration (for setting personal preferences only).
Users with the Account role have the least access to Advanced eDiscovery. They have access only to the Investigations tab, from where they can view their own archived emails.
Note that Personal.cloud is the preferred access method for users to view archived emails. Personal.cloud allows users to tag and restore archived emails into their own inbox.
Note: In one case, those accounts with theAccountrole can have greater access in Advanced eDiscovery. Administrators can configure the account in Archive Administration to make it anExternal Reviewer. These accounts are for users who are not part of your organization, but who need to review emails within the cases that are assigned to them#. External reviewers have their account disabled for archiving, and can only access theE-Discoverytab in Advanced eDiscovery. Within theE-Discoverytab the external reviewers can perform similar tasks as those accounts with theReviewerrole. See the Archive Administration help for more information about creatingExternal Revieweraccounts.
