- Overwrite
Type: System.Boolean
A Boolean expression that indicates whether an existing data source with the same name in the location specified should be overwritten.
- Definition
Type: ReportService2010.DataSourceDefinition
A DataSourceDefinition object that describes the connection properties for the data source.
- Properties
Type: array<ReportService2010.Property[]

Remarks
The table below shows header and permissions information on this operation.
SOAP Header Usage |
(Out) ServerInfoHeaderValue |
Native Mode Required Permissions |
Creating a new data source: CreateDatasource on Parent Updating an existing data source: UpdateContent on DataSource Updating data source properties: UpdateContent AND UpdateProperties on DataSource |
SharePoint Mode Required Permissions |
Creating a new data source: AddListItems() on Parent Updating an existing data source: EditListItems() on DataSource |
If the .rsds extension is excluded from the data source name, an rsFileExtensionRequired error will be returned. If an .odc extension is given, an rsNotSupported error is returned.
If errors occur, the data source is not created.
The length of the Parent parameter cannot exceed 260 characters; otherwise, a SOAP exception is thrown with the error code rsItemLengthExceeded.
The Parent parameter cannot be null or empty or contain the following reserved characters: : ? ; @ & = + $ , \ * > < | . ". You can use the forward slash character (/) to separate items in the full path name of the folder, but you cannot use it at the end of the folder name.
