'Usage
Dim instance As ProxyAccount

public sealed class ProxyAccount : AgentObjectBase, 
    IAlterable, ICreatable, IDroppable, IRenamable, IScriptable

    IAlterable, ICreatable, IDroppable, IRenamable, IScriptable

[<SealedAttribute>]
type ProxyAccount =  
    class
        inherit AgentObjectBase
        interface IAlterable
        interface ICreatable
        interface IDroppable

Remarks

Proxy accounts allow for the impersonation of logins, server roles, and database roles when executing a job step in any subsystem other than Transact-SQL. In SQL Server Management Objects (SMO), the ProxyAccount object allows programmatic control over proxy accounts. The ProxyAccount object describes the relationship between an alternative (proxy) login account, a subsystem that is used for job step execution, and a list of Microsoft SQL Server logins, server roles, and database roles.

To get ProxyAccount object properties, users must be a member of the SQLAgentOperatorRole on the MSDB database, or be a member of the sysadmin fixed server role.

To set ProxyAccount object properties, users must be a member of the sysadmin fixed server role.

To create or drop a proxy account, users must be a member of the sysadmin fixed server role.

To add or remove subsystems from the proxy account, users must be a member of the sysadmin fixed server role.
