I figured this would be simple, but being new to SSRS I'm not sure.
I've created a basic report template, that uses a number of data sources, to display some information about a Site. It takes a SiteId parameter
I then want to be able to run this report for multiple SiteId's to produce a report with a page for each site.
Is this possible? If so can somebody let me know how or point me to a tutorial on how to do it?
Thanks
Make a dataset that fetches your list of sites. Then put a List area that is bound to your site list, and put a Subreport in the list. Pass the site field in as a parameter to the subreport.
Oh, and tell the List to put page breaks in.

I have a dashboard SSRS report in embedded in another web app.
In this report there are drill down reports(too many).
By default I set rc:stylesheet=hideToolbar for this main report. So the toolbar is hidden.
Now we want to show the Toolbar on specific drill down reports(not all of them).
Is there a way to do this?
I have tried to create a new stylesheet but as I'm not able to change rc:stylesheet parameter when I'm calling the drilldown report it doesn't work.
I understand what you are trying to do and know that this is achievable through custom stylesheets as well alternatively via a custom SSRS Toolbar UI (via old 2005/2010 mgmt and Execution SOAP SSRS APIs*).
But that may be way overkill for your situation.
My best suggestion with the current out-of-box behavior of SSRS as of MSSQL 2019 (applies to 2016 as well) would be to create a custom link or imageLink inside those subreports that you want to have an SSRS Toolbar for which then either pops up a small new browser window above the main report (or on a new tab) with the subreport- and per default SSRS behavior the toolbar will be there, or, if you want to be explicit you can add the SSRS qs param "&rc:Toolbar=true" to that link.
I have actually used both approaches on projects. It really depends on the requirements, priority and time ya know?
Let me know if I can try to further help in any way if anything I shared was useful.

We've just had one of our systems moved to a new server, along with 3600+ SSRS reports. All these reports contain hyperlinks. Unfortunately, none of these hyperlinks have been updated to point to the new server, and so are still opening items on the old server.
Instead of having to edit each hyperlink in each report, is there a way I can globally update the reports at the same time so that the hyperlinks point to the new server?
I thought running an update on the content field in the catalog table might do the job but apparently not from what I've been able to gather online.
Thank you for any help you can give.
Yep, normally it would be better to store your hyperlinks in a dataset.
I dont think you can do that globally, because your hyperlink is embedded in your report.
You can open your report .rdl file in text editor. In the text editor you can search for your hyperlink and replace it with the new value (search & replace). Well this still has to be done per hand for each report.
On top, you can write a small program in C#, .NET, etc... in which you pass your old and new hyperlink (single or as datatable). The program basically, opens all the .rdl reports and apply the search & replace then close and safe it.
We are creating a Summary report with lot of Sub-Reports linked to it in SSRS. When Summary report is exported as excel all Sub-Reports should be exported as separate tabs. So far it is working.
Now the issue is we need to have button in each row on the Summary report (in the tablix) , which when clicked opens up the relevant tab in Excel.This behavior is expected after report has been exported to Excel.I have been looking to find to solutions to this but haven't fount anything so far.
Any pointer/suggestion would be a great help.
Thanks

Add bookmarks and bookmark links to a report when you want to provide a customized table of contents or to provide customized internal navigation links in the report. Typically, you add bookmarks to locations in the report to which you want to direct users, such as to each table or chart or to the unique group values displayed in a table or matrix. You can create your own strings to use as bookmarks, or, for groups, you can set the bookmark to the group expression.
Here is the Microsoft documentation https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/reporting-services/report-design/add-a-bookmark-to-a-report-report-builder-and-ssrs
How can i combine couple of rdl reports and display that to SSRS native web portal. I already created that report and deployed to the server (SSRS Native portal) using Sql Server data tool 2015. But my client wants to view all reports in the same window. Although all reports has the same parameter.enter image description here

The SSRS native web portal doesn't contain a mechanism to link multiple reports and run them on the save page via shared parameters (or anything even like that).
You have two options:
Create the merged report yourself. You should be able to import (or copy/paste) the datasets from each report into a new report, link them all one one set of parameter(s), and copy paste the content of each report (then fix all broken references).
The option above is the naive way to merge three reports into one. Instead, you could create a new master report, add the shared parameter and then add each additional report as a subreport to the parent report. Tutorial here.
Create an ASP.NET application that wraps the multiple reports into a single page. This will be quite a bit of work if you have never done this, but you would be able to create a custom parameter(s), pass the parameter(s) into the each report through code and render the multiple reports on a single page.
I would recommend option number 2.
I am trying to build a pop up zoom box which will be activated on a report embedded in a form allowing the user to click on the report and view a field on the underlying table which the report is demonstrating. Furthermore, the user will also have the opportunity to edit the fields contents which the zoom box, upon closing will then paste into the field in the underlying table.
A colleague of mine confirmed for me that this is possible and put me on the right track by showing me that it is possible to extract a field by creating a control on a report. However, i am missing the part to repaste the updates into the underlying field.
Being a report, Sift F2 does not allow the edit..
I would appreciate any advice available.
Thanks,
