Required permissions

The user specified in the connector settings must have the following privileges on the source database:

Running with the db_owner role

If the user is a member of the db_owner database role, the following permissions must be granted:

  • On the master database:

    • grant VIEW ANY DEFINITION
    • grant VIEW SERVER STATE
  • On the MSDB database:

    • grant SELECT ON SYSJOBACTIVITY

    • grant SELECT ON SYSJOBS

Running without the db_owner role

If the user is not a member of the db_owner database role, the following permissions must be granted on the source database:

  • grant VIEW DATABASE STATE
  • grant SELECT
Information noteWhen running without the db_owner role, MS-CDC cannot be enabled automatically and must therefore be enabled manually. To prevent landing errors, you must also clear the Enable MS-CDC on all captured tables check box in the connection properties before running the task. For more information, see Microsoft SQL Server (Microsoft CDC based)
