Overview 

A Help Desk Administrator has restricted access associated with their profiles. They have the necessary permissions to manage day-to-day activities such as performing backup and restore operations, resetting passwords for the users, and addressing user complaints.

The Help Desk administrator cannot place or view users on legal hold.

Before you begin
