Add Office 365 Account
After all the Office 365 configurations are completed from previous sections, follow these steps to add your Office 365 account on FortiCASB.
- Log into FortiCASB, go to Dashboard > Business Unit Overview, and click Add New.
- Select Office 365, and click Add Selected Cloud App.
- You will be prompted to provide administrator credentials. This is for the automation process of adding the global administrator as the "site collection administrator" for the users under the administrator account. For more details refer to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/manage-user-profiles
- Click OK.
- After logging in, Office 365 will prompt you to accept FortiCASB access.
- After you accept FortiCASB to access your Office 365 account, you will be redirected back to the FortiCASB dashboard.
Note: The credentials are only used for a one time configuration, FortiCASB will not store your Office 365 credential.
Alternatively, if you don't want FortiCASB to audit your OneDrives, or want to install it manually, you can check "Prefer not to provide".
If you have a custom SharePoint homepage URL, you will have to allow collection manually. See Manually Activate Sites Collection. |
You will be redirected to the Office 365 login screen.
