are not accessible to unauthorized requests, that is why the worker needs to take over credentials
of an existing user to take a snapshot.
By default, Alerts and Reports are executed as the user that the `THUMBNAIL_SELENIUM_USER` config
parameter is set to. To change this user, just change the config as follows:
```python
THUMBNAIL_SELENIUM_USER = 'username_with_permission_to_access_dashboards'
```
In addition, it's also possible to execute the reports as the report owners/creators. This is typically
needed if there isn't a central service account that has access to all objects or databases (e.g.
when using user impersonation on database connections). For this there's the config flag
`ALERTS_REPORTS_EXECUTE_AS` which makes it possible to customize how alerts and reports are executed.
To first try to execute as the creator in the owners list (if present), then fall
back to the creator, then the last modifier in the owners list (if present), then the
last modifier, then an owner (giving priority to the last modifier and then the
creator if either is contained within the list of owners, otherwise the first owner
will be used) and finally `THUMBNAIL_SELENIUM_USER`, set as follows:
By default, Alerts and Reports are executed as the owner of the alert/report object. To use a fixed user account,
just change the config as follows (`admin` in this example):
```python
from superset.tasks.types import ExecutorType
ALERT_REPORTS_EXECUTE_AS = [
ExecutorType.CREATOR_OWNER,
ExecutorType.CREATOR,
ExecutorType.MODIFIER_OWNER,
ExecutorType.MODIFIER,
ExecutorType.OWNER,
ExecutorType.SELENIUM,
]
THUMBNAIL_SELENIUM_USER = 'admin'
ALERT_REPORTS_EXECUTE_AS = [ExecutorType.SELENIUM]
```
Please refer to `ExecutorType` in the codebase for other executor types.
