Important
Microsoft recommends that you use roles with the fewest permissions. Using accounts with lower permissions helps improve security for your organization. Global Administrator is a highly privileged role that should be limited to emergency scenarios when you can't use an existing role. To learn more, see About admin roles in the Microsoft 365 admin center.
You must be either a global admin, global reader, or Teams service admin to view the reports in the Microsoft Teams admin center. To learn more about getting admin roles and permissions, see Use Teams administrator roles to manage Teams.

Make user-specific data anonymous
To make the data in Teams user activity report anonymous, you must be a global administrator. Anonymizing the report hides identifiable information (using Message Digest 5 (MD5) hashes) such as display name, email, and Microsoft Entra Object ID in report and their export.
In Microsoft 365 admin center, go to the Settings > Org Settings, and under Services tab, choose Reports.
Select Reports, and keep the option for Display concealed user, group, and site names in all reports as checked. This setting applies to the usage reports in Microsoft 365 admin center and Teams admin center.
