The Squirrel Administrator Portal gives IT administrators access to the centralized dashboard for managing archive and restore activity, monitoring worker status, and reviewing logs and storage usage.

Administrators log in using their Microsoft 365 credentials through a personalized login URL specific to your company. Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is required to ensure secure access.

Once logged in, administrators can view and manage:

- Archive and restore queues - Dashboard metrics - Job status and history - Worker node health - Audit logs - Storage consumption and savings
