Since the answer is given in the documentation, the other options are incorrect.

To know more about eDiscovery roles and permissions, please refer to the link below:

To assign the least privilege role to a user for putting a Core eDiscovery case on hold, you should assign the Reviewer role to the user.

The Reviewer role can view, search, and export content from the Core eDiscovery case, but cannot modify or delete content. This role is appropriate for individuals who need to review content for responsiveness, confidentiality, and privilege.

On the other hand, the eDiscovery Administrator role can perform all the functions of the Reviewer role, as well as modify and delete content from the Core eDiscovery case. This role is appropriate for individuals who manage the eDiscovery process, including creating cases and managing holds.

The eDiscovery Manager role is a higher-level role than the eDiscovery Administrator role, and it includes all the permissions of the eDiscovery Administrator role. This role is appropriate for individuals who manage eDiscovery processes across multiple cases.

The Logic App Contributor role is unrelated to eDiscovery and is used to manage logic apps that automate business processes.

Therefore, in this scenario, the Reviewer role is the most appropriate role to assign to the user who needs to put the Core eDiscovery case on hold, as it provides the necessary permissions without granting unnecessary privileges.
