Greetings to the Kingdom,
Over the weekend we had a datacenter move and in the the process moved the database for SSRS. I knew that my subscriptions would automatically move, so imagine my surprise when they didn’t. Our SSRS databases were located on a new server that had the same name as the old server. After running down the error “The EXECUTE permission was denied on the object ‘xp_sqlagent_notify’, database ‘mssqlsystemresource’, schema ‘sys’”, I found a super awesome blog post. It noted that I was missing assignments to my RSExecRole role. Once I ran the script, I stopped and restart SSRS and all the subscriptions came over. Huge sigh of relief. Have a great day!
This error will occur when you are trying to create subscriptions for a reports
