Add Accounts for Trend Micro Cloud Collectors

You can use your Trend Micro account across one or more Trend Micro Cloud Collector instances. Before you can add your account, you must identify the authentication method and obtain the identifying information.

To create a Trend Micro account perform each of the following workflows:

Create a Custom User Role

To create a custom user role that is required for configuring permissions and asset visibility scope for Trend Vision One user accounts:

  1. Log in to the Trend Vision One console with your registered credentials as an administrator.

  2. Navigate to Administration > User Roles > Add Role. For more information, see User Roles in the Trend Micro Documentation.

    You cannot add or modify a Predefined Role in Trend Micro. Hence it is recommended to create a new custom role to use while creating an API Key.

  3. In the General Information section, specify a name for the custom role and add relevant description.
