    Hi,

    When running the interactive job with WA Agent, the user must be logged in.  Is the user logged in to the Windows when the job was submitted?

    Hi

    Yes the user session exist into the server, even we have monitored the transaction by RDS, and the outcomes are the same, when the user have Administrator permissions the solution have worked fine, but when we changed to another group different to Administrators groupt like Power User group, is when we have the issue.

    Hi,

    Please see this link.  It looks like agent will need additional permissions.

     

    Check out this KD as well.

    Hi, the options were tested, and the solution wasn't as Power User, but if you follow the instructions the job in general work fine, unfotunatly my customer saw as a security risk the configurations and didn't be applied, but work.
