security necessary for SDK to access Cognos 10.1.1

What security rights are necessary for an account to access a Cognos report via the java SDK? I see all kinds of examples of the java code to do it, but nothing that documents what I have to do as an administrator to allow the account to do it.

The account can successfully go into Cognos Connection and run the report. However, using the java app with the SDK, it fails trying to get the report parameters. There are no errors in the Content Manager or Dispatcher logs for the session.

I even made the account used by the java app a member of the System Administrators role and it still failed, albeit after 4 minutes instead of immediately.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
