Accessing SQL Server Reporting Services from C#

RSS
Modified on Fri, Jun 27, 2014, 8:23 AM by Administrator Categorized as SSRS (SQL Server Reporting Services), Visual Studio and Developer Tools

Overview



Procedure

1. Navigate to Project menu > Add Service Reference > Advanced button > Add Web Reference button

2. In the URL field, specify the URL for the SSRS instance's web service (e.g., http://myserver/myinstance/reportservice2010.asmx)

3. In the Web Reference Name field, specify "SsrsService" and click the Add Reference button.

4. Add the ReportProvider class (see below) to your solution.

5. In the ASPX code-behind code for the page that contains the ReportViewer control, add the RenderReport method (see below). Elsewhere on that same page, call the RenderReport method to render the report in the ReportViewer control.

6. Add the following settings to your web.config file (in the appSettings section).

<!-- SSRS Settings -->
<add key="SsrsServerRoot" value="http://localhost" />
<add key="SsrsWebServicePath" value="/ReportServer/ReportService2010.asmx" />
<add key="SsrsReportServerPath" value="/ReportServer" />
<add key="SsrsDefaultCredentials" value="false" />
<add key="SsrsUserName" value="user" />
<add key="SsrsPassword" value="password" />
<add key="SsrsDomain" value="domain" />

Reusable Code

ReportProvider Class

public class ReportProvider
{
    /*- Private Fields ----------------------------------------------------------------------*/
    //ReportingService2010 _webService;

    /*- Constructor -------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
    public ReportProvider()
    {
        bool defaultCredentials = (ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SsrsDefaultCredentials"] 
                                       == "true");

        UserName = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SsrsUserName"];
        Password = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SsrsPassword"];
        Domain = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SsrsDomain"];
        ReportServerRoot = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SsrsServerRoot"];
        ReportServerPath = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SsrsReportServerPath"];
        ReportServerUrl = new System.Uri(ReportServerRoot + ReportServerPath);

        //var url = ReportServerRoot + ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SsrsWebServicePath"];
        //_webService = new ReportingService2010();
        //_webService.Url = url;

        //if (defaultCredentials)
        //    _webService.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials;
        //else
        //    _webService.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential(username, password, domain);
    }

    /*- Private Properties ------------------------------------------------------------------*/
    private string UserName { get; set; }
    private string Password { get; set; }
    private string Domain { get; set; }
    private string ReportServerRoot { get; set; }
    private string ReportServerPath { get; set; }

    /*- Public Properties -------------------------------------------------------------------*/
    public System.Uri ReportServerUrl { get; set; }

    public ReportCredentials Credentials
    {
        get
        {
            ReportCredentials rc = new ReportCredentials(UserName, Password, Domain);
            return rc;
        }
    }

    /*- Public Methods ----------------------------------------------------------------------*/
    //public List<CatalogItem> GetReportList(string folder, bool includeBlank)
    //{
    //    List<CatalogItem> result = new List<CatalogItem>();

    //    if (folder.Length > 0 && !folder.StartsWith("/"))
    //        folder = "/" + folder;

    //    if (includeBlank)
    //        result.Add(new CatalogItem { Name = "(select)", Path = "" });

    //    List<CatalogItem> items = _webService
    //        .ListChildren(folder, false)
    //        .Where(o => o.TypeName == "Report")
    //        .ToList<CatalogItem>();

    //    result.AddRange(items);

    //    return result;
    //}


    /*- Nested Classes ----------------------------------------------------------------------*/
    [Serializable]
    public class ReportCredentials : Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.IReportServerCredentials
    {
        string _userName, _password, _domain;

        public ReportCredentials(string userName, string password, string domain)
        {
            _userName = userName;
            _password = password;
            _domain = domain;
        }
        public System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity ImpersonationUser
        {
            get
            {
                return null;
            }
        }
        public System.Net.ICredentials NetworkCredentials
        {
            get
            {
                return new System.Net.NetworkCredential(_userName, _password, _domain);
            }
        }
        public bool GetFormsCredentials(out System.Net.Cookie authCoki, out string userName, 
            out string password, out string authority)
        {
            userName = _userName;
            password = _password;
            authority = _domain;
            authCoki = new System.Net.Cookie(".ASPXAUTH", ".ASPXAUTH", "/", "Domain");
            return true;
        }

    }

}

RenderReport Method

Place this code in your ASPX code-behind for the page that has a ReportViewer control with the ID uxReportViewer.

private void RenderReport(string reportName)
{
    var rp = new ReportProvider();
    var rv = uxReportViewer;
    var sr = rv.ServerReport;
    var rc = rp.Credentials;
    rv.ShowCredentialPrompts = false;
    sr.ReportServerCredentials = rc;
    rv.ProcessingMode = Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.ProcessingMode.Remote;

    /* IMPORTANT: This should be the Web Service URL! */
    sr.ReportServerUrl = rp.ReportServerUrl;
    sr.ReportPath = reportName;
    sr.Refresh();
}
