Guys,
I am working in a project to get SSRS metadata dependencies and I was recommended to use the article Extracting SSRS Report RDL (XML) from the ReportServer database. This article is a really good material.
However, I still have some issues related to Data Sources. When I try to get the information from rdl file is the only valid Data Source Reference I was able to find is the Data Source name, but the Data Source is not in the same library of the report, so it should have a path and it does not have it.
<DataSources><DataSource Name="Products"><DataSourceReference>Products</DataSourceReference><rd:SecurityType>Integrated</rd:SecurityType><rd:DataSourceID>d6de0a33-9824-4f73-ad87-729c7ce2f4ce</rd:DataSourceID></DataSource></DataSources>
If I use just the name, I won't be able to differentiate two different data sources having the same name in different libraries, for example. So, how can I know wich is the right data source file using the rdl file?
Regards.
Lawrence
