Roles and permissions in Reporting Services

Reporting Services provides an authentication subsystem and role-based authorization model. Authentication and authorization models vary depending on whether the report server runs in native mode or SharePoint mode. If the report server is part of a SharePoint deployment, SharePoint permissions determine who can access the report server.

Identity and access control for native mode

Default authentication is based on Windows authentication and integrated security. You can change the authentication settings to allow the report server to respond to different authentication requests. Or, you can replace the default security features with a custom authentication extension that you provide. For more information, see Grant permissions on a native mode report server.

Authorization is based on roles that you assign to a principal. Each role consists of a set of related tasks, which are in turn composed of related operations. For example, the Content Manager role has the Manage reports task. This task grants access to the following report server operations: view reports, add reports, update reports, delete reports, schedule reports, and update report properties.

Roles and system roles

Report servers have two types of roles that you can define:

Item roles

Item roles come with the following tasks that you can assign:

View reports View reports and linked reports in the folder hierarchy; view report history snapshots and report properties.
Manage reports Create and delete reports; and modify report properties.
View resources View resources in the folder hierarchy; and view resource properties.
Manage resources Create, modify and delete resources, and modify resource properties.
View Folders View folder items in the folder hierarchy; and view folder properties.
Manage folders Create, view, and delete folders; and view and modify folder properties.
Manage report history Create, view, and delete report history snapshots; and modify report history properties.
Manage individual subscriptions Each user can create, view, modify, and delete subscriptions that they own.
Manage all subscriptions View, modify, and delete any subscription regardless of who owns the subscription.
View data sources View shared data source items in the folder hierarchy; and view data source properties.

System roles

System roles come with the following tasks that you can assign:

Task Descriptions

Manage jobs View and cancel running jobs.
Execute Report Definitions Start execution from report definition without publishing it to Report Server.

Identity and access control for SharePoint mode

In SharePoint integrated mode, authentication and authorization are handled on the SharePoint site, before requests reach the report server. Depending on how you configure authentication, requests from a SharePoint site include a security token or a trusted user name. Permissions that you set for SharePoint users and groups authorize access to report server items that are placed in SharePoint libraries. For more information, see Grant permissions on report server items on a SharePoint site.
