Remote access allows the Drata Support team to troubleshoot complex issues directly in your tenant for a limited time.

💡 Still using the classic Drata experience? Refer to Grant Remote Access to Drata Support for the original UI.

Remote access is:

  • Temporary (time-bound)

  • Explicitly scoped (view-only or limited edit access)

  • Used only for troubleshooting issues you report

Remote access automatically expires based on the date and time you select.

Prerequisites

Only Admins can manage remote access. This action is not available to other roles.

Grant remote access

  1. In the Drata app, go to Settings.

  2. Under Organization, select Account access.

  3. Select the access level.

  4. Choose the expiration date and time.

  5. Select Submit.

Result: Remote access is enabled until the selected expiration time.

Access levels

Choose one of the following access levels when granting access:

View only

Allows authorized Drata team members to view your tenant to help investigate questions or issues.

Use this when:

  • You need help reviewing configurations

  • You want Support to observe behavior without making changes

Allowed to make changes

Allows a small, authorized group of specially trained Drata team members to view and perform limited actions strictly for troubleshooting.

This may include:

  • Reproducing reported errors

  • Validating configurations

  • Investigating integration or data issues

Important rules

  • Access is limited to troubleshooting only.

  • Drata Support cannot perform routine administrative tasks on your behalf.

  • Drata does not provide professional services through this access.

  • Response times may take 24–48 hours (excluding weekends and holidays) due to limited authorization.


After troubleshooting

Once your issue is resolved:

  • Confirm the access level is set back to No access, or

  • Verify the expiration date is set appropriately

Best practice: Revoke access as soon as troubleshooting is complete.


Security notes

  • Only authorized Drata team members can use remote access.

  • All activity is restricted to issue investigation.

  • Access cannot be used to complete standard tasks you can perform yourself.
