Service Support Administrator is the least-privilege role for viewing Microsoft 365 service health. Microsoft Learn states that users assigned Service Support Administrator and Helpdesk Administrator can view service health. Service Support Administrator is the canonical least-privilege role purpose-built for this view.
Why A is wrong: User Administrator manages user accounts and licenses, not service health visibility.
Why B is wrong: Domain Name Administrator is scoped to DNS and domain changes, not health monitoring.
Why C is correct: Correct. Microsoft Learn states that users assigned Service Support Administrator and Helpdesk Administrator can view service health.
Why D is wrong: Reports Reader sees usage reports, not service health incidents or advisories.
