Hello,

We are attempting to setup the SolarWInds Orion data import connector for Surface Command

> **[Rapid7 Extensions](https://extensions.rapid7.com/extension/solarwinds_orion_app#Documentation-Heading-Settings)**
>
> Discover Extensions for the Rapid7 Command Platform

However the documentation does not clarify if active directory joined SSO accounts are usable for this such as “DOMAIN\user”

the documentation also do not clarify what permissions are required on the solarwinds side for the account. Assuming read only but a clearer definition from rapid7 on what they require would be helpful.
