Hi Julien, for crawling SharePoint you should use the *Default Content Access Account* configured in the SharePoint *Search Service Application* (Central Administration > Manage Service Applications > Search Service Application). This user should have sufficient permissions to access all content in your SharePoint server.
Hope this helps Konrad -----Original Message----- From: Julien Massiera [mailto:julien.massi...@francelabs.com] Sent: Donnerstag, 21.

First time I tried to configure the SharePoint repository connector the status was 'Crawl user did not authenticate properly", after few investigations I found that the user I configured was unable to use SOAP action 'GetListCollections' from the SP webservice. Then I added this user to the "Style Resource Readers" group (not sure it is the good english name of the group) and it resolved the problem. Then I again got a 401 error on the GetPermissionCollection SOAP action. The ManifoldCF agent for SP 2016 is correctly installed and the web page http://myserver:myport/mysite/_vti_bin/MCPermissions.asmx is returning what is expected in the documentation. So my question is : do you know what are the specific rights required for my user ? I know that with admin rights on the SP site it works but I would like to avoid an admin user to crawl my site.
