Required ABAP authorizations

  • Article

This article lists the ABAP authorizations required to ensure that the SAP user account used by Microsoft Sentinel's SAP data connector can correctly retrieve logs from the SAP systems.

The required authorizations are listed here by their purpose. You only need the authorizations that are listed for the kinds of logs you want to bring into Microsoft Sentinel.

Tip

To create a role with all the required authorizations, load the role authorizations from the /MSFTSEN/SENTINEL_RESPONDER file.

Alternately, deploy the SAP NPLK900271 CR on the SAP system to create the /MSFTSEN/SENTINEL_CONNECTOR role, or load the role authorizations from the /MSFTSEN/SENTINEL_CONNECTOR file.

If needed, you can remove the user role and any optional CR installed on your ABAP system.
