Adding report to Report server

  • Hi All,

    Is it possible to upload multiple reports in a single folder in a single go.

  • Yes, I do this all the time with visual studio. You can either deploy your entire project, or use cntl+click to select the reports you want to deploy then right click and choose deploy.

  • no script is needed, inside of VS just select the reports you want to deploy, right click and deploy them.

    If you want to do it in a script you can make use of the scripts that would work with rs.exe There is a decent sample in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Samples\Reporting Services\Script Samples directory called PublishSampleReports.rss

  • sorry about the delay I was out of the office for a few days.

    Yes. I deploy reports from my workstation to my report server in another building. As long as you have connectivity you should be able to deploy them.

    If that doesn't work for you, you could look into using rs.exe and the script samples that you can download from MS to deploy reports without Visual Studio or BIDS.

  • Use shared datasource for all reports. For better organizing.

  • Exactly, If you setup a shared datasource in your Report Project/Solution you can point all of your reports to that datasource. Then just publish the datasource with the reports.

    Additionally If you have numerous Report projects contained within the same solution as long as you point the datasources folder in each project to the same datasources folder you can copy the datasource to each of your projects and have all of the reports use the same one.

    This is exactly the same what I am doing....but I have to assign the shared datasource manualy to each report after deploying them to the remote report server.....Is there a way to do this automaticaly.....

  • You need to copy the datasource to each one of your project's datasource folder, but in the project properties make sure they all point back to http://servername/resportserver/datasources or something like that so they all reside in the same place on the reportserver itself. The reports will then all be looking for the same datasource in the same place once they are deployed.
