Hi - We have developed the set of SSRS reports in SSRS 2008 R2 and ready for UAT deployment. I need to grant access to the reports to users. Please help me in answering my below questions:
1. I am planning to have one Windows AD group to which I will add users. I will provide Browser access to the Parent folder of the reports for this AD group. This is easy for me to add/delete the users.
2. For accessing the database from the datasource, I am planning to have one generic domain account which I am planning to use with below settings.
Which type of access I need to have for this generic domain account on Database(Target DB is enough or do i need to provide access on Reportserver also..?)
Which type of security should I provide to Datasource and to which account(AD account or generic domain account)
Please advise me whether this approach is good or Not. And suggest me best practises. thanks
