Whenever a user calls the "Reports/api/v2.0/Extensions" GET method of reporting services Rest API, the following error is logged in the ReportingServicesService log file:

library!ReportServer_0-1!472c!03/28/2023-09:32:14:: e ERROR: Throwing Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.ServerConfigurationErrorException: Unable to load assembly Microsoft.ReportingServices.Cloud.DataExtensions, Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.ServerConfigurationErrorException: The report server has encountered a configuration error. ---> System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.ReportingServices.Cloud.DataExtensions' or one of its dependencies.

The system cannot find the file specified.

And I checked my "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services\SSRS\ReportServer\rsreportserver.config", there's no DAX extension at all, so I was wondering what it's instantiating DAX report server extension and how can I remove it or how to get rid of this error log

Thanks in advance.

    Hi @Michael He

    I'm sorry I couldn't revert your error, I tested this command and it worked. According to your logs, the error should be "Unable to load assembly Microsoft.Reporting Services.Cloud.DataExtensions", but I can't find the same file in my SSRS file. You may need to locate the assembly and put it where SSRS can find it. I found links with you with a similar error, you can use as a reference:

    Hope these can help you.
