I work for a company that is in the process of implementing Dynamics 365. Does the administrator have access to employees’ emails, Teams, Sharepoint and various Microsoft docs since it is one platform? Would they have access when downloading and setting up the Dynamics app within Outlook?

    Hi A Lynn,

    Regarding Dynamics 365 specifically, level of access would depend on your assigned roles and permissions within the Dynamics 365 environment. Administrators in Dynamics 365 typically have broad access to configure and manage the system, including setting up security roles and permissions for other users. However, access to specific data such as emails, Teams messages, and SharePoint documents would generally be restricted based on the permissions set within each respective application.

    When setting up the Dynamics app within Outlook, administrators may have access to configuration settings and user data related to the integration, but this wouldn't necessarily access to all emails, Teams messages, or other documents within Outlook or other Microsoft applications. Access permissions would still be governed by the user's roles and permissions within each individual application.

    Ensuring that access controls and permissions are appropriately set up is crucial for safeguarding sensitive data which may vary based on your industry and geographical location. Moreover, maintaining open communication with employees regarding data privacy and security policies is vital for fostering trust and transparency within the organization.

    Thank you.
