Permissions Required for vCOps PowerShell Module

Does anyone know what permissions are required on the vCOps UI VM to run the vCOps PowerShell Module?

Where should these permissions be set up?

Is an account that has "read only" permissions in vCenter Server, (which is inherited in vCOps automatically in vCOps) sufficient?

Do I need to create or should I create a Linux account in the WebUI for this?
I would rather not use the admin account on the UI VM in conjuction with the PowerShell module.

First of all, it doesn't need to make any changes, and second of all, this is unsupported code - not backed by VMware and security team doesn't like unknown 3rd party code running with admin credentials.

Any advice?

Thanks!
