Creating and Deploying Dashboards Remotely

You can create and deploy PerformancePoint dashboards remotely by using several assemblies that are installed with Dashboard Designer. The code example in this article shows how to create a report object and a dashboard object, deploy (publish) a dashboard to SharePoint Server, and retrieve an existing dashboard object by name.

Note: Creating and deploying dashboards remotely is not an officially supported scenario for PerformancePoint Services development, therefore the API is not exposed in the SDK.

Using the code example
1. In Visual Studio, create a C# console application project that uses the .NET Framework 3.5.
2. Add the following PerformancePoint and SharePoint assemblies as references to your project. To find the path to these assemblies, run Dashboard Designer and open Task Manager to the Process tab. Right-click DashboardDesigner.exe and select Open File Location.

· Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards.Client

· Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards.DesignerPlugins

· Microsoft.PerformancePoint.Scorecards.DesignerWorkspace

These assemblies enable you to use the BIMonitoringAuthoringServiceProxy object to create and retrieve PerformancePoint objects from the repository and the ScorecardModel, SharePointDeploy, and SharePointProxy objects to deploy a dashboard.
Note: You must also add references to System.Web.Services and System.Windows.Forms.
3. Replace the placeholder code in Program.cs with the code example below.
4. Edit the strings in the "Configuration variables" region as needed to match your configuration.
5. Run the application. You must be logged on as a user that has sufficient permissions to create content on the target SharePoint Server site.

Important This example is for demonstration purposes only and is not supported by Microsoft. When developing your own implementation, be sure to follow coding best practices for security and performance.

    Is this post still relevant for SharePoint 2013, or is there a new way to create and package performancepoint content (including dashboards) as a feature via Visual Studio? I understand that SharePoint 2013 has new dashboard migration features.  Would this now be the preferred way to do this?

    Paul, this should still be relevant for 2013.

    Hi, I need to run same code through wcf service since I need to call it from CLR. Same code is working under share point project but I can't open deployed page if I run it through WCF. I found the error: Unexpected System.Web.HttpException: 'redef.dev/.../v4.master& is not a valid virtual path.
