When installing a MID Server on a Windows platform, which right must be associated when creating a Service Account?

ALocal Admin

BDomain Admin

CMID Server User Role

DLog on as service

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

The Service Account for the MID Server must have the Log on as service right on the Windows platform. This right allows the MID Server to run as a Windows service and communicate with the ServiceNow instance. The Service Account does not need to have local or domain admin rights, as these are not required for the MID Server functionality. The MID Server User Role is a role on the ServiceNow instance, not on the Windows platform, and it is used to control the access and permissions of the MID Server on the instance.

I feel like "MID Server User Role" could be relevant, but I can't recall if it's specifically necessary for the installation process.

I remember practicing a similar question, and I think "Local Admin" was mentioned as a possible requirement, but it feels a bit too broad.

I think the right might be "Log on as service," but I'm not entirely sure. It seems important for service accounts.
