Reports leverage the existing role-based security model provided with Reporting Services. Reports support Windows Authentication only (mixed mode on SQL Server).
Reports require the following permissions and rights to successfully generate reports on your backup and restore data. Assign the appropriate role to the SQL Safe folder in the Report Manager. The individual report files inherit the permissions you set.
By default, the Reports Installer utility deploys the report files to Program Files\IDERA\SQLsafe Reporting Services on the Report Server computer.
| Account | Action | Requirements |
|---|---|---|
| Proxy user (specified in the data source) | Connect to the SQL Safe Repository and read data per report parameters | Read access to the SQL Safe Repository database |
| Administrator | Configure reports and set security, and run the Installer utility | Content Manager role |
| End user (auditor or manager) | Generate and view reports | Browse role |
