Activate a service user for SharePoint Cloud

Create a Service User

  1. Go to your Microsoft 365 admin center
  2. Go to Users > Active Users, and select Add a user
  3. In the Set up the basics pane, fill in the basic user information, and then select Next.
    1. Name Fill in the first and last name, display name, and username.
    2. Domain Choose the domain for the user's account. For example, LexisCreateDMS@company.com
Important: the newly created user doesn't need to be an admin in SharePoint, read access is enough.

Only users with an admin role in Microsoft can add a user (if you’re not familiar with this, your IT-partner definitely has experience with this) or go to following article from the Microsoft Helpdesk.

Later this user account will be connected to Lexis® Create DMS. Therefore all files this account has access to, Lexis® Create DMS will also have access to.
