How to schedule SSIS package to run as something other than SQL Agent Service Account

Solution 1:

If you have access to SQL Server Agent through SQL Server Management Studio, here are the steps to create a job using the Graphical User Interface. The steps show how to create an SQL job to run SSIS using SQL Agent Service Account and also how to create a proxy to run under a different using different credentials.

Go to SQL Server Management Studio. Expand SQL Server Agent and right-click on Jobs, then select New Job... as shown in screenshot #1.
Provide a name and Owner by default will be the account that creates the job but you can change it according to your requirements. Assign a Category if you would like to and also provide a description. Refer screenshot #2.
On the Steps section, click New... as shown in screenshot #3.
On the New Job Step dialog, provide a Step name. Select SQL Server Inegration Services Package from Type. This step will run under SQL Agent Service Account by default. Select the package source as File system and browse to the package path by clicking on ellipsis. This will populate the Package path. Refer screenshot #4. If you don't want the step to execute under the SQL Agent Service Account, then refer the steps #8 - 9 to know how you can use a different account.
If you have a SSIS configuration file (.dtsConfig) for the package, click on the Configurations tab and add the Configuration file as shown in screenshot #5.
Click OK and there is the package in step 1 as shown in screenshot #6. Similarly, you can create different steps.
Once the job has been created, you can right-click on the job and select Script Job as --> CREATE To --> New Query Editor Window to generate the script as shown in screenshot #7.
To run the SSIS step under different account, on the Management Studio, navigate to Security --> right-click on Cedentials --> select New Credential... as shown in screenshot #8.
On the New Credential dialog, provide a Credential name, Windows account and Password under which you would like to execute SSIS steps in SQL jobs. Refer screenshot #9. Credential will be created as shown in screenshot #10.
Next, we need to create a proxy. On the Management Studio, navigate to SQL Server Agent --> Proxies --> right-click on SSIS Package Execution --> select New Proxy... as shown in screenshot #11.
On the New Proxy Account window, provide a Proxy name, select the newly created Credential, provide a description and select SQL Server Integration Services Package as shown in screenshot #12. Proxy account should be created as shown in screenshot #13.
Now, if you go back to the step in SQL job, you should see the newly created Proxy account in the Run as drop down. Refer screenshot #14.
