    Get
    Set
'Usage
Dim instance As DataSourceDefinition
Dim value As Boolean

value = instance.ImpersonateUser

member ImpersonateUser : bool with get, set

Property Value

Type: System.Boolean
A Boolean value.

Remarks

When set to true, a data extension attempts to impersonate the user authenticated to the report server at the data source after a connection has been established.

Note

ImpersonateUser is only support by the SQL Server data extension that ships with Report Server.

When set to false, the Report Server passes credentials to the data source.

Impersonation may only be performed when CredentialRetrieval is set to Store.
