Using Application Roles with Reporting Services (SSRS)
I need to know how I would use an Application Role to connect to my Sql Server Report Server (SSRS).
I have an application that uses an Application Role to talk to the database. This works fine, as I can invoke the stored procedure, sp_setapprole, and my SqlConnection object now runs with the permissions of my application role. What I don't
know how do to is to make a call to my Report Server with this same application role. As I understand, the Report server would need to invoke that same call to sp_setapprole before it could query the database.
What is the recommended solution to have an application talk to an SSRS server while using an application role?
