Removing reports / report folder by SSRS (SQL SERVER REPORTING SERVICE)

Goal :

Remove the report folder from backstage.

Implement Steps:

1.       Create a C# console application project.

2.       Add one web reference into the project. [VS2010 : http://localhost:80/ReportServer/ReportService2010.asmx]

 

3.       Open the “Web References/WebServicelocalhost” folder from the project location directory and find out the “Reference.cs” file in there.

4.       Create a new console project then add the “References. cs” as a class file,   add the web reference project as a reference.

 

5.       Open the web reference project and change the internal keyword to public in the file of  \TempWebRef\TempWebRef\Properties “Settings.Designer.cs”.

public sealed partial class Settings : global::System.Configuration.ApplicationSettingsBase {

6.       Open the “Reference.cs” file and change the namespace to a new definitely one.

 //WebServicelocalhost

namespace TempWebRef.LocalReportServiceRemoveGenReport { ...

7.       Create a static private method in the “Reference.cs “ class ,it is will be better write around the “DeleteItem” default method.

 

代码

8 .     public   void  DeleteItem( string  Item) {
9 .                 this .Invoke( " DeleteItem " ,  new   object [] {
10 .                            Item});
11 .            }
12 .    
13 .             public   static   string  DeleteReport( string  _reportPath,  string  _reportServerURL)
14 .            {
15 .                 string  strReturn;
16 .                strReturn  =   " success " ;
17 .                 try
18 .                {
19 .                    ReportingService2005 rs  =   new  ReportingService2005();   //  Declare one reference object .
20 .                    _reportPath  =   " /GenevaReports/13Report " ;  //  Naming the report path you want to remove. And if you want to remove a folder , only change the path as the main folder name like ‘/GenevaReports’
21 .                    _reportServerURL  =   " http:// "   +  _reportServerURL  +   " /reportserver/ReportService2005.asmx " ;  //  Create the report server URL string which the reports belong to.
22 .    
23 .                    rs.Credentials  =  System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
24 .                    rs.Url  =  _reportServerURL;
25 .    
26 .    
27 .                    rs.DeleteItem(_reportPath);  //  Call the execution.
28 .    
29 .                     return  strReturn;
30 .                }
31 .                 catch  (Exception xe)
32 .                {
33 .    
34 .                    strReturn  =  xe.Message  +  _reportServerURL;
35 .                     return  strReturn;
36 .                }
37 .    

 

8.  Switch to another project and call the report deleting method like below.

string stemp = TempWebRef.LocalReportServiceRemoveGenReport.ReportingService2005.DeleteReport("TestReport","Server3");
