A member suggested checking if the Helpdesk role has permission to view the folder containing the data collector. The user found the solution by granting the Helpdesk role access to view the folder.

Troubleshooting Edge DX and Netskope CASB
A user asked about Netskope CASB causing Edge DX to show their IP address as a Netskope owned one instead of their actual ISP IP. They found an article about ZScaler needing to be set up to bypass some ControlUp URLs for the real IP to show, and asked if this would likely be the same fix for Netskope. Another user responded saying they had a similar issue with ZScaler and needed to set up a bypass in order to correctly report ISPs. It is likely that EdgeDX is looking at the IP the client is coming in from and showing the Netskope IP. The ZScaler bypass information can be found here: https://support.controlup.com/docs/show-the-real-ip-address-for-devices-using-zscaler-vpn
