Reporting Services Subscriptions with basic authentication

Question

In the ssrs webportal i'm unable to manage subscriptions. "something went wrong" when i try to pull the page.

i see in the log 'Authpersistence does not apply to basic authentication.' bother. can no longer use basic auth? i'm not running norad here.

i see a few authentication schemes. none look user friendly. has anyone come up against this & know a manageable way out?

Hi @jim burns ,
Make sure you have configured Basic Authentication correctly, see more: Configure Basic Authentication on the Report Server.
Authentication merely confirms the identity of the requestor. It doesn't include authorization, which is the process of using the requestor's identity to check whether permissions allow access to the requested resource. So make sure you have sufficient permissions to manage subscriptions.
