Parameters

  • Report
    Type: System.String
    The name of the new report including the file name and .rdl file name extension.
  • Parent
    Type: System.String
    The fully qualified URL for the parent folder that will contain the report.
  • Overwrite
    Type: System.Boolean
    A Boolean expression that indicates whether an existing report that has the same name in the location specified should be overwritten.
  • Warnings
    Type: array<ReportService2006.Warning[]%
    [out] An array of Warning objects that describes any warnings that occurred when the report definition was validated.

Return Value

Type: ReportService2006.CatalogItem
A CatalogItem object for the newly created report.

Remarks

The length of the Parent parameter cannot exceed 260 characters; otherwise, a SOAP exception is thrown with the error code rsItemLengthExceeded.

The Parent parameter cannot be null or empty 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 errors occur, the report is not created.

Adding a report to a SharePoint library modifies the ModifiedBy and ModifiedDate properties of the parent folder.

If the .rdl file name extension is excluded from the report name, an rsFileExtensionRequired error will be returned.
