I have report set up at reporting server. And from mvc.net through javascript. I am opening report using the code below:
function ShowSnapShot() {
window.open("http://ServerName/ReportingServerName/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2fFolderName%2fSubFolderName%2fReportName&rs:Command=Render&Parameter=003532");
}
Whenever I open the report it asks for credentials. How could I pass Credentials with the url or is there any way I could open the report without using Report Viewer?
Ensure the user who is opening this report has Browse permissions to the report/folder on the report server.
Additionally, check the credentials on the Data Source used by the report. You may need to select Credentials stored securely in the report server.

i like to use a report from sql reporting services (SSRS) to generate invoices. the front software builds the url to reporting web portal and to report "Invoice"
just like:
https://DOMAIN/Reports/report/Invoice?start=01.01.2022&end=31.12.2022&duedate=15.01.2023&date=19.01.2022&key=123456100000&customerId=123456&invoicenumber=22AR12345
The big goal is to store the user generated invoices as a single blob just in time on the same server in the database, after a trigger.
If the invoice would be stored on server i can grap and input it via stored procedure as blob into database.
I tried this, when i was on server per remote desktop, i can execute the report and saved it as pdf file on data directory, press company logo (the trigger), then another report opens which executes the stored procedure to import the file into db as single blob. this already works fine.
But how can this file saved on server if the user executes the report per URL?
Has anyone an idea? Is there another way?
I am creating a data driven subscription and that requires you to stored credentials. However, they want want a link to the report embedded in the email. If the user clicks the link then stored credentials will be what is authenticated and not the actual user.
They would like the user to be prompted for authentication when they manually execute the report. Here are a couple of things I was considering:
I think I can accomplish this by creating a copy of the report that uses a different data source configured to prompt the user for credentials and use the URL to this report to include in the data driven subscription.
I don't think I can do this, in sql update the Credential Retrieval to go from Using the Following Credentials to Prompt the User for Credentials. However, if you switch it back to use the setting Using the Following Credentials, then I will need to reapply the username and password. Not quite for sure how to do that programmatically.
Does anybody else have an idea on how to handle this?
If a make a #UserID hidden parameter in my SSRS report and set that server side in a ReportViewer control is that parameter then secure or could it be altered by the end user?
I am using SSRS 2017.
The user would be able to run the report by passing in the parameter value in a URL to open the report. I wouldn't think most users have the technical skills to do so, but it is possible.
Here's a link to show you how they would have to create the URL.

I'm trying to publish SSRS 2016 Web Service & Web Portal via Web Application Proxy and AD FS on Win 2012 R2.
What configuration do I need to have on the SSRS side in order to be able to access reports via URL and WAP?
Does anyone has found a step-by-step guide? I've been googling for a few days without luck.
Thanks,
I'm not sure if there was any special SSRS configuration required, but here are the steps for getting the SSRS web portal published through the WAP.
One issue we had was the report path was being removed from the querystring when a report was requested. The solution was to encode the report path portion of the URL.
Create a standard Relying Party Trust in ADFS with no claims set and the endpoint and identifier set to https://example.com/ReportServer/.
Publish an endpoint in WAP with ADFS pre-authentication and set external and internal URL to https://example.com/ReportServer/.
Use a URL like the following to access a report, https://example.com/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx/?%2fHR-Reports%2fQ1-Report&rs:Command=Render
UPDATE:
Unfortunately, this doesn't appear to be the case. There seems to be a bug with the WAP related to truncating the report path. If you have already authenticated with ADFS and then access a report (e.g. https://example.com/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?/HR-Reports/Q1-Report&rs:Command=Render), you are redirected to ADFS because the authn token is not yet set for your reports service provider (SP) as the "EdgeAccessCookie" cookie.
The reports SP (usually WAP really) redirects you to ADFS for a token with your return URL in the query string. You've already authenticated to ADFS, so you're given a token for the SP and redirected back to your SP, but the issue is the report path is no longer present in the query string of your SP's URL (https://example.com/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx/?rs:Command=Render&authToken=xyz). This causes an error at your report server.
If you then access the original URL again though (https://example.com/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?/HR-Reports/Q1-Report&rs:Command=Render), you already have your authn token for the SP and your browser presents it to your SP as the EdgeAccessCookie cookie. In this case you are not redirected to ADFS and you are able to access your report as expected. Of course, this is less than ideal however having to access your report a 2nd time.
I am not able to create subscriptions for SSRS reports as it gives the following error:
Subscriptions cannot be created because the credentials used to run
the report are not stored, or if a linked report, the link is no
longer valid.
My set up is as following:
ServerA - Database Server
ServerB - Report Server
MachineC - Internet explorer to view the reports
So I am viewing reports on Machine C, IE, and ServerB connects to ServerA for Datasource.
The problem sounds like the report expects the user to provide credentials when it is viewed. When you create a subscription, it does not have the credentials to execute the report.
Go to the report, click the properties tab, then choose Data Sources in the left pane.
Are you using a shared data source? Is it using Windows integrated security? If so, can you change it to use a service account made just to run these reports? You may need to view these properties by viewing the data source itself.
If it is a custom data source is the option "Credentials supplied by the user running the report" selected? If so, can you change it to "Credentials stored securely in the report server"?
Either way, if you want to set up a subscription, I have made it work by providing credentials in the data source rather than have the user input them.
If you are worried about security, I would suggest managing that on the report level rather than the data source level.
What the error does not make clear is, in order to be able to subscribe to a report not only must the data source be set to "Credentials stored securely in the report server" you must also not select the option "Impersonate the authenticated user after a connection has been made to the data source".
The way I did was to create a new data source in the report builder and explicitly provided the username and password there to be used.
Then, used that username password with the new data source with the report and voila it worked.
I faced same issue as you, and i found its solution, as #richard said already that it is related to credential of data source you use for your deployed report.
To resolve it Follow these steps:
1. Right click on your shared Data source which you use in your deployed report.
2. Click On Edit Button.
3. a new window will open click on Credential from left pane, Select Use this user name and password then click ok.
4. Check on Save these credential option you get on to previous screen.
5. Test connection and if succeed click ok and deploy your project on report server.
For reference plese look at screen shot given below:
Thanks.
