Permissions
It's recommended that the machine running the remote agent has network access and permission to access all the solution items that you want to scan. See the Remote Agents article for additional recommendations about where to install them.
Note: SentryOne Document (the cloud version at document.sentryone.com) uses https://document-api.services.sentryone.com/ as the communication endpoint and port 443 for HTTPS. These will need to be allowed by your firewall.

Accessing SentryOne Document Solutions
The following script shows you how to grant the necessary permissions to users so that all server level objects, databases, associated database objects and SQL Server Agent objects can be read. This needs to be executed against any SQL Server that exists as a solution in SentryOne Document.
SQL Server
USE [master];
GO
IF NOT EXISTS
(
SELECT *
FROM syslogins
WHERE [name] = 'Domain\Account'
)
CREATE LOGIN [Domain\Account] FROM WINDOWS WITH DEFAULT_DATABASE = [master];
GRANT VIEW SERVER STATE TO [Domain\Account];
GRANT VIEW ANY DEFINITION TO [Domain\Account];
GRANT CONNECT ANY DATABASE TO [Domain\Account];
GO
USE [msdb];
GO
CREATE USER [Domain\Account] FOR LOGIN [Domain\Account];
GO
USE [msdb];
GO
ALTER ROLE [SQLAgentOperatorRole] ADD MEMBER [Domain\Account];
GO
SSIS
If the server hosting the solution also has SSIS and the solution contains SSIS items, then permissions must be granted for the SSISDB in addition to the SQL Server permissions above.
USE [SSSIDB];
GO
CREATE USER [Domain\Account] FOR LOGIN [Domain\Account];
GO
USE [SSISDB];
GO
ALTER ROLE [SSIS_Admin] ADD MEMBER [Domain\Account];
GO
