Passing Credentials to Sql Report Server 2008

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/671694

Question

I am pretty new in C# and my English is not so good - sorry in advance if I miss a point.

I tried to build an ASP.NET web site with a ReportService control. As you might already know, SSRS 2008 does not allow anonymous login. So, I tried to pass Credentials to SSRS which will be stored inside my web page so that users will be able to see the report without logging in.

I found the code below and put it on my WebForm, but I'm having a problem with the report parameters.

  • If there are default values for the report parameters, the below code works okay.

  • But, if I try to change the value of a parameter, the whole page is
    refreshed and before I click the "View Report" button, all
    parameters are reset to default or null values.

Any suggestion on how to avoid refreshing the whole page, or another way to pass the login info to SSRS? Thanks a lot in advance.

        ReportViewer1.ServerReport.ReportPath = "/autonarudzba/listanarudzbi";
        ReportViewer1.ServerReport.Refresh();

     {
        get { return new NetworkCredential(_UserName, _PassWord, _DomainName); }

      out string password, out string authority)
     {
        authCookie = null;
        user = password = authority = null;
        return false;
     }
}
Was it helpful?

Solution

I really haven't messed with SSRS - but my ASP.NET hat tells me you may want to wrap that stuff in an if (!IsPostBack) block to keep it from running on the page refresh. My guess is that ReportViewer1.ServerReport.Refresh() pulls the default values again.

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    if (!this.IsPostBack) 
    {
        ReportViewer1.Width = 800;
        ReportViewer1.Height = 600;
        ReportViewer1.ProcessingMode = ProcessingMode.Remote;
        IReportServerCredentials irsc =new CustomReportCredentials("administrator", "MYpassworw", "domena");
        ReportViewer1.ServerReport.ReportServerCredentials = irsc;
        ReportViewer1.ServerReport.ReportServerUrl = new Uri("http://192.168.0.1/ReportServer/");
        ReportViewer1.ServerReport.ReportPath = "/autonarudzba/listanarudzbi";
        ReportViewer1.ServerReport.Refresh();
    }
}

OTHER TIPS

I made new function and picked it up in the design view on properties, events, reportViewer. (In selection INIT i)

After that, the page works normally and I can change values for parameters.

Default.aspx now looks like:

    </head>
      <body>
        <form id="form1" runat="server">
         <div>
            <rsweb:ReportViewer ID="ReportViewer1" runat="server" onload="Admir">
            </rsweb:ReportViewer>
         </div>
       </form>
    </body>

And Default.aspx.cs looks like this

 public void Admir(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        ReportViewer1.Width = 800;
        ReportViewer1.Height = 600;
        ReportViewer1.ProcessingMode = ProcessingMode.Remote;
        IReportServerCredentials irsc = new CustomReportCredentials("administrator", "mypass", "domena");
        ReportViewer1.ServerReport.ReportServerCredentials = irsc;
        ReportViewer1.ServerReport.ReportServerUrl = new Uri("http://192.168.0.1/ReportServer/");
        ReportViewer1.ServerReport.ReportPath = "/autonarudzba/listanarudzbi";
        ReportViewer1.ServerReport.Refresh();

    }
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {

    }

you can use the following code in page load event to give parameters

ReportParameter[] reportParameterCollection = new ReportParameter[1]; //Array size describes the number of paramaters.
reportParameterCollection[0] = new ReportParameter();
reportParameterCollection[0].Name = "ACCMGR";   //Give Your Parameter Name
reportParameterCollection[0].Values.Add("12"); //Pass Parametrs's value here.
ReportViewer1.ServerReport.SetParameters(reportParameterCollection);
ReportViewer1.ServerReport.Refresh();

I hope the this works for you

i have found the solution for this. you have to set credentials first then you have to set parameter for reportviewer.

 rvCommon.ProcessingMode = ProcessingMode.Remote;
        rvCommon.ServerReport.ReportServerUrl = new System.Uri("SSRSReportServerURL");
        rvCommon.ServerReport.ReportPath = "/Report Parts/CustomerMainReport2" ;

        Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.ReportParameter[] RptParameters = new Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.ReportParameter[1];
         rvCommon.ServerReport.ReportServerCredentials = new ReportCredentials("username", "password", "");

        RptParameters[0] = new Microsoft.Reporting.WebForms.ReportParameter("CustomerId", "1");
        rvCommon.ServerReport.SetParameters(RptParameters);
        rvCommon.ServerReport.Refresh();
