Hi folks,

first of all thank you for your answers. I want to notice you that I found a solution for my problem and share it with you.

I have added my user to the User Policy of the SharePoint Web Application with Full Read Permissions and I was able to crawl any Site of the SharePoint with the ACLs !

I have to thank the GSA documentation in which I found this recommandation !

Also, I didn't test but I think what Konrad proposed is also working :

use the*Default Content Access Account*  configured in the SharePoint*Search Service 
Application*  (Central Administration > Manage Service Applications > Search 
Service Application)

As this account has the same permissions.

Regards,
Julien

Hi Julien,

I wish one of us was a SharePoint or Microsoft expert, but we're not, and we get asked this question all the time.  All I can say is that it works when you use a user with full rights, and it doesn't when you don't.

    Hi folks,

    I am trying to crawl a SharePoint 2016 using MCF and I have some
    troubles.

    First time I tried to configure the SharePoint repository
    connector the status was 'Crawl user did not authenticate
    properly", after few investigations I found that the user I
    configured was unable to use SOAP action 'GetListCollections' from
    the SP webservice. Then I added this user to the "Style Resource
    Readers" group (not sure it is the good english name of the group)
    and it resolved the problem.
    Then I again got a 401 error on the GetPermissionCollection SOAP
    action. The ManifoldCF agent for SP 2016 is correctly installed
    and the web page
    http://myserver:myport/mysite/_vti_bin/MCPermissions.asmx is
    returning what is expected in the documentation.

    So my question is : do you know what are the specific rights
    required for my user ? I know that with admin rights on the SP
    site it works but I would like to avoid an admin user to crawl my
    site.

    Thanks for your help !
