Required and recommended permissions

Consider adding the following permissions:

Permission Permission Level Reason
Retrieve Endpoint Data Checked Enables TSF (Technical Support File) generation from endpoints directly within the support case wizard. Without this, users cannot attach endpoint diagnostic data to tickets, significantly reducing support effectiveness for endpoint-related issues. Strongly recommended.
Agent Administrations View/Edit Strongly recommended to view and select endpoints in the support case form. Without this, the endpoint selection dropdown is disabled. Users cannot pick a specific endpoint to associate with their ticket.
Agents (Cortex Agentic Assistant) View/Edit Enables agent-related permissions within the support case form. When present, it allows the user to include the agent context in support tickets. Recommended.
Cases & Issues View Recommended to enable users to reference and attach issue/case context when submitting support cases about detection issues.
