SQL Server reporting services administrative access

7,851

By default SSRS appears to have BUILTIN\Administrators group as site administrators and little else. This doesn't appear to include domain admins either.

To gain access I suggest logging into the box using the local administrator account and you should find you have access. Once in then add any appropriate administrative groups.

    I have a server which has SQL server reporting services installed within it and I need to give permission to a user to administer reporting services/have the content manager role.

    I however I did not install SQL reporting services on this machine and I'm not 100% on who did.

    Is there a way for a full server administrator/domain admin to assign permissions to others in reporting services and if so how as I seemingly don't have permissions to the permissions tab on http://servername/reports

    Thanks in advance, C
