Overview
Learn how to configure security roles and permissions for your users to access and synchronise data between Microsoft Dynamics and your Engagement Cloud account.
Understanding the security roles
Installing the Engagement Cloud for Dynamics connector adds three new email-related security roles in Microsoft Dynamics:
- Email Marketing Manager
Can manage campaigns, send campaigns, and synchronise marketing lists between your CRM and Engagement Cloud account. - Email Marketing Professional
Can manage campaigns and synchronise marketing lists between your CRM and Engagement Cloud account. - Email Marketing Viewer
Can view campaigns that have been synced to Dynamics, as well as all associated data, but they can't send or manage campaigns.
Users must have at least one email-related security role in addition to the usual security roles of Microsoft Dynamics (Sales Representative, Marketing Manager, etc.) to view campaign data and use the connector.
Before you start
To use the Engagement Cloud for Dynamics connector, all your users must be existing users in both your Microsoft Dynamics and Engagement Cloud accounts. Find out how to add users to Engagement Cloud in Managing your team.
