The minimum permissions will vary, depending on which actions you are using.

 

To allocate IPs from existing networks, on each network you will use, you'll need: Read/Write for IPv4 Host Addresses, IPv4 DHCP Ranges, and IPv4 Fixed Addresses/Reservations, as well as Read for Grid DHCP Properties.

 

To create DNS records for new VMs, for each zone and reverse lookup zone you will use, you'll need: Read/Write for Host, A Records, and PTR.

 

To allocate IP ranges for on-demand networks, for each network container you will allocate from, you'll need: Read/Write for IPv4 Host Addresses, IPv4 DHCP Ranges, and IPv4 Fixed Addresses/Reservations, as well as Read for Grid DHCP Properties.

 

For in-depth guide on this and other aspects of installing\using the Infoblox plugin for vRA 8.1, take a look at our deployment guide at Infoblox.com.
