We just performed a new restore into a new environment of PBIRS, encryptions keys have been restored as well.

I am able to access the environment and, but I am not able to set any subscription or modify any data source.

It could be that the encryption key was not correctly applied and you can't edit/change the encrypted content in data sources. Try reapplying the encryption keys, then restarting the server. You can also look at the server log files for more specific errors.
