So as most of my blog articles this post is inspired by an email I received asking for permissions to run SSIS packages.
In SQL Server 2005 there are 3 Database Roles in the msdb system database:
MSDN Integration Services Roles 2005
| Role | Read action | Write action |
| db_dtsadmin | Enumerate own packages. | Import packages. |
| or | Enumerate all packages. | Delete own packages. |
| sysadmin | View own packages. | Delete all packages. |
| View all packages. | Change own package roles. | |
| Execute own packages. | Change all package roles. | |
| Execute all packages. | ||
| Export own packages. | ||
| Export all packages. | ||
| Execute all packages in SQL Server Agent. | ||
| db_dtsltduser | Enumerate own packages. | Import packages. |
| Enumerate all packages. | Delete own packages. | |
| View own packages. | Change own package roles. | |
| Execute own packages. | ||
| Export own packages. | ||
| db_dtsoperator | Enumerate all packages. | None |
| View all packages. | ||
| Execute all packages. | ||
| Export all packages. | ||
| Execute all packages in SQL Server Agent. | ||
| Windows administrators | View execution details of all running packages. | Stop all currently running packages. |
In SQL Server 2008 these 3 Database Roles are now named db_ssisltduser, db_ssisoperator, and db_ssisadmin
MSDN Integration Services Roles (2008)
| Role | Read action | Write action |
| db_ssisadmin | Enumerate own packages. | Import packages. |
| or | Enumerate all packages. | Delete own packages. |
| sysadmin | View own packages. | Delete all packages. |
| View all packages. | Change own package roles. | |
| Execute own packages. | Change all package roles. | |
| Execute all packages. | Bitmap | |
| Export own packages. | ||
| Export all packages. | ||
| Execute all packages in SQL Server Agent. | ||
| db_ssisltduser | Enumerate own packages. | Import packages. |
| Enumerate all packages. | Delete own packages. | |
| View own packages. | Change own package roles. | |
| Execute own packages. | ||
| Export own packages. | ||
| db_ssisoperator | Enumerate all packages. | None |
| View all packages. | ||
| Execute all packages. | ||
| Export all packages. | ||
| Execute all packages in SQL Server Agent. | ||
| Windows administrators | View execution details of all running packages. | Stop all currently running packages |
So in this particular case granting the user db_dtsltduser was enough to fullfill their request as they only needed the ability to run packages that they created. As always with security/permissions make sure you only grant what’s required instead of going to easier route of using an “admin” type of role.
Enjoy!!
Hi Everyone,
I am getting one typical error while running SSIS package. I am exporting the data from SQLServer Database Table to Text file. The textfile is in the remote location(\\192.168.0.99\SSIS\Tabledata.txt).
for windows Authentication or SQL User I gave the db_Owner in master and msdb database. I am able to export the data without any errors.
for that users, I added SYSADMIN Server Role, from that user when I am trying to run the SSIS package from Management studio, it is giving error.
Error Number is: Code: 0xC001401E
Could you please explain anyone…Its very urgent

sounds like it might not be a “SQL” permission issue but rather a file or folder permission issue.
So you when running the package have permissions to the file or folder but what about the user that will be running the package?
Hope this helps and sorry that I don’t have more info/ideas on this.
Dude!
I’ve been messing around with SQLAgent* roles for the last three hours. Your post enumerated everything that I needed to know…
My SSIS packages are running properly again!
Thank you. thank you. thank you.
glad to help and thanks for reading!!
