SSIS Package EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey BUT user no longer exists

  • Hi all,

    I have a SSIS package which was created by someone else which has the ProtectionLevel set to EncryptSensitiveWithUserKey.

    I now need to edit the package, which I can do BUT cannot save as it is encrypted with another users key, the issue being here, is that the user who created it has subsequently had the account deleted.

    Is there anyway to edit this package under another users account?

    Thanks in advance.

  • Once you open the package to edit it, can you not change the package Protectionlevel to EncryptSensitivewithpassword and give your own password.

    I haven't been in this scenario, but trying to think a way out..

  • Bru, thanks for the quick response.

    I can change the ProtectionLevel BUT I cannot overwrite the same package, I need to save it out as something else.

    I think this is my only option. The package itself contains a number of other packages which I will need to do the same with and then rebuild in another project.

    Thanks again.

  • Yes sadly that is the only option...
