Custom security report access from ASP.Net application

  • Hi,

              I have implemented Forms authentication on SSRS 2005 based on

    the msdn article.i have tested by directly going to the report manager

    and also the report server and custom security works fine.

    How to access reports from asp.net application after implementing SSRS

    2005 to Custom Security SSRS 2005.i tried to do various things,but

    failed .

    Is there a way that any one can tell how to achieve this.

    Thanks

  • Are you familiar with using Impersonation with forms authentication? If you are then this is the answer. Simply authenticate the users through your application as users who have been assigned rights within the reporting server.

    You will find a nice trick here: htt://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/eb0zx8fc.aspx

    This article explains how to enable cross application sessions which means you can keep someone logged in when they link from one application to another. If you use this on both the web application of your reporting server and of your application, your users will be authenticated seemlessly.

    If my post raised more questions than answers, please ask for clarification.

    Pete.
