A reading apparatus includes a user interface, a scanner, and a controller configured to perform a push scan that causes the scanner to read a document according to an execution instruction corresponding to an operation on the user interface, and a pull scan that causes the scanner to read the document according to an execution instruction from an external device. The controller is configured to set a restriction setting value relating to a restriction on the push scan, and in a case where the controller receives an execution instruction of the push scan via the user interface, restrict the push scan according to the restriction setting value. In a case where the controller receives an execution instruction of the pull scan, the controller is configured to specify whether authentication is necessary with respect to the execution instruction of the push scan, based on the restriction setting value.
