SSRS 2008 260 Character URL limit

  • Is there any workaround or hack to get around this limitation?

    Maybe there's another way I can accomplish the same thing. On a report we have a ton of parameters. How could I send someone to a report and have the parameters fill in with what we specified without using parameter defaults?

    Thanks in advance!

    You could store the parameter options and concatenate the values that make up the URL.

    Eg

    http://YourReportServer/YourClient/Reports/YourReport.rdl%20YourFirstParameter&YourSecondParameteretc...

  • Unless I'm missing something, doing this will give me a url greater than 260 characters.

    My apologies - here is a solution you could try: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms153563.aspx

  • This looks like it might be it. I'll give it a try. Thanks!
