SSRS Security setting, can't get them on Report level

    Hi,

    I work on test SSRS setup and trying to give one user enough rights so she can download RDLs from server, but no matter what I do on Folder leverl, on report level her security are still only as a <Browser>.

    Structure of our Server is:

    Home/NewReports/Misc/Report01.

    I'm checking those in <Folder Settings>/<Security> where this user is OK (Browser, Content Manager, Publisher, Report Builder).

    So she looks OK in all folders Home/NewReports/Misc, but on report level she still only a browser.

    Our db team tried everything on SSRS server working with Site settings and Folder option, how to make that report inherit security ??

    Thanks

    for the report, go to the manage screen (mouse over the report and select Manage)

    On the LHS of the screen, select "Security"

    You should see "Revert to Parent Security" as an option - click on it and the click OK on the message the pops up.

    Thanks, SS

    Is this option can be configured upon setting SSRS Server, so all newly added reports will get parent security ?

    Best

    As far as I know, newly added reports do get parent security; it's when you change it at the report level that it breaks the inheritance.
