Pass data to report from page - reporting-services

Is there a way that we can Pass data to report from web page
To be more specific I have a report to which I want to bind dataset from Code behind,
I am using ssrs 2008 r2
with C# 4.0 ASP.NET
Basically these reports will be viewed on browser, but what I want is to have something like we can pass the data from the page to the report
So far I found that there is no direct solution but is there any workaround ?

You can do it using XML and pass the data from the page to the report server
The XML datasource will generate dataset in the report and you can use it in your report
For detailed answer please take a look here

Report Preview not displaying data

Need help on this as I'm quite new to using this Telerik Reporting tool.
I've configured my data source to point to the correct database and I've already set the query to be used to display the report. As you can see below, the data is shown in the preview data source result.
However when I preview it in the report designer, it is not showing any report data as seen below.
I need help on what to do in order to display the records in the report. I'm not sure where to check.
For company/Location you need to send ID=126 not name in preview window, same as in data source query.

Opening a SSRS report in PDF format on an image click

I am new to SSRS and having hard time rendering a report in PDF format.
I have a master report which within has a PDF icon. My requirement is to get a report that uses the parameters from SSRS master report and open the report in PDF format in new tab.
I tried applying the below logic from a post from Stack overflow
(https://stackoverflow.com/questions/ask?title=I%20am%20new%20to%20SSRS%20and%20having%20hard%20time%20rendering%20a%20report%20in%20PDF%20format.)
For example, to specify two parameters, “ReportMonth” and “ReportYear”, defined in a
report, use the following URL for a native mode report server:
http://myrshost/ReportServer?/AdventureWorks 2008R2/Employee_Sales_Summary_2008R2&ReportMonth=3&ReportYear=2008
but the same did not work.
**I need to pass the parameters from master report.
I am building my report using SSDT version 2017 and using HANA as DS.
Thanks in advance.
You will have to use the Action property with the Go to URL action of the icon. Use an expression to build the URL:
=String.Format(“http://myrshost/ReportServer/?/MyReportName&ReportMonth={0}&ReportYear={1}&rs:Format=PDF", Fields!ReportMonth.Value, Fields!ReportYear.Value)
This will replace the placeholders {0} and {1} in the string with values from your master (current) report and pass them as parameters to the MyReportName report which will be rendered as PDF.

How to default a SSRS report to PRINT PREVIEW

I am converting access reports to SSRS reports for a client application. The Clients requirement is, when they open a SSRS report, it should by default open with Print Preview. I am unable to find a property in SSRS which sets it. Any suggestions? or any help?
Please!
Nope, but I have to assume you mean when they open the 'ReportViewer' that they can immiediately see the option to save the file. However.... SSRS has some pretty cool features built into it that you can do depending on access rights and levels.
You can give a user a rest URI that can set a 'format' to render to and thus give them the report in that format. Good for Excel and PDF junkies. It works like this: ( ENSURE you understand that the landing page for SSRS is usually Reports and the SERVICE is usually ReportServer)
http:// (servername)/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2f(directoryName)%2f(reportName)&rs:Command=Render&rs:Format=PDF
The rest URI on SSRS's service is pretty cool as you can put parameters in, set rendering options, and choose other options.
Expanding on 1 if your client needs something on a custom viewer, you can consume an SSRS web service in a form object in HTML like so:
<form id="frmRender" action="http:// (servername)/(pathtoreport)" method="post"
target="_self">
<H3>My Report Title</H3>
Render in the following format:<br/>
<Select ID="rs:Format" Name="rs.Format" size=1>
<Option Value="HTML4.0">HTML 4.0</Option>
<Option Value="PDF">PDF Format</Option>
</Select>
</form>
This would give a person that can't take the extra second to hit print preview to only be offered two choices of either HTML or PDF
Still not enough? Well you can extract out the SSRS service to a local C# or VB.NET class proxy object and then build a custom .NET interface for a client to build the reports yourself in binary formats. I have done this for custom interaction in existing services that when an event happens a report needs to go out. Be aware this process is pretty time consuming so I would suggest parts 1 and 2 unless you want to dive deep into RDL language code. If so I would read this other thread on diving deeper: Programmatically Export SSRS report from sharepoint using ReportService2010.asmx

CRM 2011 Passing QueryString to SSRS Report

I have a report in SSRS that I have in Dynamics CRM 2011 and when the report is run, in the url it passes the id like http://url&id=123-123-123-123. I am trying to make my report in ssrs to grab the id from the query string and use that in the parameters to determine which data to show. Is this possible and if so how would one go about doing it.
Thanks!
CRM actually sends a parameter which can be used to select the filtered view of data that the report was run on. See the report writers guide, and in particular, Using Filters in a Report.
In the simplest case, you would write your main data set to select like so: SELECT <column1>, <column2>, <columnN> FROM FilteredAccount AS CRMAF_FilteredAccount
If that doesn't answer answer your question... You could write an aspx page which embeds the report viewer control. From there you would read the query string, load the report, and then set some parameters based on the query string values. You'd have to have custom ribbon options to launch your custom page.
I had the same problem.
Here is the resolution which worked for me:

Add input parameter VS 2008

I am new to SSRS. I have Business Intelligence VS 2008. I am trying to add report parameters to the report but the data tab does not seem to be coming up in the designer. My requirement is to pass parameters from the UI to the report in a remote/server mode. I have to just pass the parameters to the report and the report should render the output in a pdf format.
There are a number of ways to achieve what you're looking for. Take a look at the following link: http://weblogs.asp.net/stephensonger/archive/2008/12/05/opening-ssrs-report-in-pdf-format-via-asp-net.aspx
It outputs an SSRS 2008 report directly to PDF.
