Configuring End-User Permissions for ContentStore Email Viewer

Before the content indexed message can appear in the ContentStore Email Viewer, end users must be assigned the End User Access permission through the CommCell Console.

Before You Begin

Ensure you have configured the recall services for Outlook Add-In. See Configuring Recall Services for Outlook Add-In - Administrator.

Note

After you configure the recall services, you must perform an incremental backup of the archived email data before they will appear in the ContentStore Email Viewer.
