AddListItems() |
The length of the full path name for the new folder cannot exceed 260 characters; otherwise, a SOAP exception is thrown with the error code rsItemLengthExceeded.
Folder names must be less than 128 characters long. The names cannot be null, consist of empty strings, 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.
If My Reports is enabled, a SOAP exception is thrown with the error code rsItemAlreadyExists if you attempt to create a folder named "My Reports" in the root folder of the report server database.
Adding a folder to the report server database modifies the ModifiedBy and ModifiedDate properties of the parent folder.
