Connector readiness is visible before identity-specific access is visible.
Admins need evidence that permissions hold for real employees, while the index must not disclose protected material during that check.
Who you’d be doing this for
“My security lead keeps asking what a finance analyst will see, and I only have crawl status to show them.”

Owns authentication, data-source rollout, and access confidence for a distributed enterprise deployment.
What is at stake
Admins can see a connector indexing without knowing what a particular employee can retrieve. You must weigh rollout confidence against exposing anything outside that employee’s permissions.
Why it isn’t already fixed
Every obvious fix costs something else. That’s the part you’d have to decide.
- admin confidence vs. content disclosure
- self-serve rollout vs. security review
- diagnostic depth vs. interface clarity
- new capability vs. live retrieval performance
