Now that you say it, it is indeed written "You must grant the user admin rights in order to access utilization information". All in all, I believe it would probably be more explicit if it was written as "the user must be in the administrators group in DSM". My 2c, |
This is a quiet common phrase and it describes that the user has to have admin rights - it is up to the user, how they want to achieve this - maybe through a direct membership of the administrators group or indirect via other group memberships |
I had this issue too, and the text in the Separate User Configuration section was unclear.
Implies that if you don't want to access utilization information, then admin rights are optional. Or that only certain permissions are required, for certain things. Side note... if that were true, it would also be very useful to specify which specific admin permissions the user requires, as my initial assumption was that it would not be literally everything. Alas, through much trial and error... even granting access to all applications, and giving the user all permissions through Delegated Administration... it's clear that yes, indeed, it's FULL admin rights, which (at least in my version of DSM) can only be given by adding the user to the "administrators" group.

I tried to integrate my Synology DS218play (running DSM 7.2) in HomeAssistant with a HA specific user created on the NAS.
It failed consistently until I put the user in the administrators group.
I believe this should be mentioned explicitly in the documentation for the integration. (I read somewhere this was mandatory starting with DSM 7.1).
I also gave it permissions to use DSM but I'm not sure if that's required.
