Can NCM job scheduler only use AD accounts for jobs? Not able to use SW Admin?

I'm using NCM 7.1.x with partial Win32 functionality and part web console.  the job scheduler only allows me to use my AD account?  does the scheduler only use Windows logins?  not Solarwinds accounts?

  • NCM 7.1.1 and before require a Windows Administrator account in order to call the NCM jobs to run.   These don't have to be AD accounts, but these accounts must have Windows Administrator rights on the NCM server in order to run the job at the scheduled time.

    NCM 7.2 and above removed this requirement, as such NCM jobs in 7.2 and above do not use any Windows credentials in order to run at their scheduled times.
