Remarks

The StartSnapshotGenerationAgentJob method can only be called by members of the sysadmin fixed server role at the Publisher or by members of the db_owner fixed database role on the publication database.

Calling StartSnapshotGenerationAgentJob is equivalent to executing sp_startpublication_snapshot (Transact-SQL).
