standard reports

  • what previalges a user need to view standard reports under sql 2005 mgmt studio ?

  • what permissions a user should have to view all of the reorts under Mangement Studio in SQL 2005.

  • Custom reports run by using the permissions of the current user. To prevent a malicious user from changing the queries run by the report, permissions on the file system folder that contains the report files should be set to restrict access.

    Both the user and the account that is used by the SQL Server service require read access to the file system folder that contains the report files.

  • I am not sure what you are saying but i have a simple question about standard reports.

    What permissions need by a user to view standard reports not custom reports.

  • VIEW SERVER STATE permission for server-level and VIEW DATABASE STATE permissions

  • Thanks for that.

    is there any risk involved granting that permission to a user?

  • It depends.

    I wouldn't grant that kind of permission to anybody outside the database department for any production system. For development, I would consider granting to the development team.
