Publish reports to a report server

  • Cikk

After you design and test a report or set of reports, use the deployment features in SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) to publish the reports to a report server. You can publish individual reports or a report server project, which can include multiple reports and data sources. Publishing a report server project is the easiest way to publish multiple reports. SSDT uses the term deploy, instead of the term publish. The two terms are interchangeable.

SSDT provides project configurations for managing report publications. Configurations specify:

  • The location of the report server and the version of SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) installed on the report server.
  • Whether the data sources are published to the report server or are overwritten. For example, the "Debug" configuration can publish to a different server than the "release" configuration. In addition, you can create more configurations.

Prerequisites

Your report server administrator defines role-based security that determines permission. Publishing operations are typically granted through the Publisher role.

Project configurations

Your reporting environment might have multiple report servers and different versions of Reporting Services installed. You can create multiple configurations and then choose one specific to your deployment scenario. Project configurations include properties for building reports, such as the folder in which to temporarily store the built reports, and how to handle build issues. The configurations also have properties that you use to specify the report server's location, the version of the report server, and the folders on the report server.

By default, SSDT provides three project configurations:

Project configuration Description
DebugLocal View reports in a local preview window.
Debug Publish reports to a test server.
Release Publish reports to a production server.

The Solution Configurations drop-down list on the Standard toolbar shows the active configuration. To use a different configuration, select it from the list.

Publish all reports in a project

You can view the publishing process in the output window by using one of the following methods:

  • On the SSDT Build menu, select Deploy Solution. OR,
  • In Solution Explorer, right-click the report project and then select Deploy Solution.

When you deploy a report server project, the shared data sources in the report project are also deployed. All reports are deployed from the same project configuration: to the same report server, the same folder on the server, and so on. To publish reports to different servers, either publish them one at a time or include only the reports you want to in the report server project. A solution can include multiple report server projects. Multiple projects might make it easier to manage the deployment of reports because you can use a different configuration to deploy different projects.

Publish a single report

In Solution Explorer, right-click the report and then select Deploy Solution. View the status of the publishing process in the output window.

When you publish a report, you must also deploy the shared data sources that the report uses.

  • If you don't want to publish all reports in a project, you can publish only a single report. Select a configuration that deploys the report (for example, the Release configuration), right-click the report, and then select Deploy Solution.
  • If a report uses a shared data source, you need to also deploy the shared data source or the deployed report doesn't run. Right-click the shared data source and then select Deploy Solution.

After the target server URL of the report server is specified, you can change the default folders to specific reports, and then shared data sources deploy.
