URL Access Parameter Reference

You can use the following parameters as part of a URL to configure the look and feel of your reports. The most common parameters are listed in this section. Parameters are case-insensitive and begin with the parameter prefix rs: if directed to the report server and rc: if directed to an HTML Viewer. You can also specify parameters that are specific to devices or rendering extensions. For more information about device-specific parameters, see Specify Device Information Settings in a URL.

Important

It is important the URL include the _vti_bin proxy syntax to route the request through SharePoint and the Reporting Services HTTP proxy. The proxy adds some context to the HTTP request, context that is required to ensure proper execution of the report for SharePoint mode report servers. For examples, see Access Report Server Items Using URL Access.

For information about including report parameters in a URL, and examples, see Pass a Report Parameter Within a URL.

HTML Viewer Commands (rc:)

The following table describes the URL access parameters that are prefixed with rc: and are used to target the HTML Viewer.

Parameter	Description	Values
Toolbar	Shows or hides the toolbar. ** Important ** rc:Toolbar=false does not work for URL access strings that use an IP address, instead of a domain name, to target a report hosted on a SharePoint site.	If the value of this parameter is false, all remaining options are ignored. If you omit this parameter, the toolbar is automatically displayed for rendering formats that support it. The default of this parameter is true. true false
Parameters	Shows or hides the parameters area of the toolbar. Native mode example: http://myrshost/reportserver?/Sales&rc:Parameters=Collapsed SharePoint mode example: http://myspsite/subsite/_vti_bin/reportserver?http://myspsite/subsite/Sales&rc:Parameters=Collapsed	If you set this parameter to true, the parameters area of the toolbar is displayed. If you set this parameter to false, the parameters area is not displayed and cannot be displayed by the user. If you set this parameter to a value of Collapsed, the parameters area will not be displayed, but can be toggled by the end user. The default value of this parameter is true. Valid values are: true false Collapsed
Zoom	Sets the report zoom value as an integer percentage or a string constant. Native mode example: http://myrshost/reportserver?/Sales&rc:Zoom=Page Width SharePoint mode example: http://myspsite/subsite/_vti_bin/reportserver?http://myspsite/subsite/Sales&rc:Zoom=Page Width	Standard string values include Page Width and Whole Page. This parameter is ignored by versions of Internet Explorer earlier than Internet Explorer 5.0 and all non-Microsoft browsers. The default value of this parameter is 100.
Section	Sets which page in the report to display. Native mode example to display page 2 of the report: http://myrshost/reportserver?/Sales&rc:Section=2 SharePoint mode example to display page 2 of the report: http://myspsite/subsite/_vti_bin/reportserver?http://myspsite/subsite/Sales&rc:Section=2	Any value that is greater than the number of pages in the report displays the last page. Any value that is less than 0 displays page 1 of the report. The default value of this parameter is 1.
FindString	Search a report for a specific set of text. Native mode example: http://myrshost/reportserver?/Sales&rc:FindString=Mountain-400 SharePoint mode example: http://myspsite/subsite/_vti_bin/reportserver?http://myspsite/subsite/Sales&rc:FindString=Mountain-400
StartFind	Specifies the last section to search. Native mode example that searches for the first occurrence of the text "Mountain-400" in the Product Catalog sample report starting with page one and ending with page five: https://server/Reportserver?/SampleReports/Product Catalog&rs:Command=Render&rc:StartFind=1&rc:EndFind=5&rc:FindString=Mountain-400	The default value of this parameter is the last page of the report.
EndFind	Sets the number of the last page to use in the search. For example, a value of 5 indicates that the last page to be searched is page 5 of the report. Use this parameter in conjunction with the StartFind parameter. See the above example for StartFind .	The default value is the number of the current page.
FallbackPage	Sets the number of the page to display if a search or a document map selection fails.	The default value is the number of the current page.
GetImage	Gets a particular icon for the HTML Viewer user interface.
Icon	Gets the icon of a particular rendering extension.
Stylesheet	Specifies a style sheet to be applied to the HTML Viewer.
Device Information Setting	Specifies a device information setting in the form of rc:tag=value, where tag is the name of a device information setting specific to the rendering extension that is currently used (see the description for the Format parameter). For example, you can use the OutputFormat device information setting for the IMAGE rendering extension to render the report to a JPEG image using the following parameters in the URL access string: ...&rs:Format=IMAGE&rc:OutputFormat=JPEG. For more information on all extension-specific device information settings, see Device Information Settings for Rendering Extensions (Reporting Services).

Report Server Commands (rs:)

The following table describes the URL access parameters that are prefixed with rs: and are used to target the report server.

Parameter	Description
Command	Performs an action on a catalog item, depending on its item type. The default value is determined by the type of the catalog item referenced in the URL access string. Valid values are: ListChildren and GetChildren Displays the contents of a folder. The folder items are displayed within a generic item-navigation page. Native mode example: http://myrshost/reportserver?/Sales&rs:Command=GetChildren SharePoint mode example: http://myspsite/subsite/_vti_bin/reportserver?http://myspsite/subsite/Sales&rs:Command=GetChildren
	Render Renders the specified report. Native mode example: http://myrshost/reportserver?/Sales/YearlySalesByCategory&rs:Command=Render SharePoint mode example: http://myspsite/subsite/_vti_bin/reportserver?http://myspsite/subsite/Sales/YearlySalesByCategory&rs:Command=Render
	GetSharedDatasetDefinition Displays the XML definition associated with a shared dataset. Shared dataset properties, including the query, dataset parameters, default values, dataset filters, and data options such as collation and case sensitivity, are saved in the definition. You must have Read Report Definition permission on a shared dataset to use this value. Native mode example: https://localhost/reportserver/?/DataSet1&rs:command=GetShareddatasetDefinition
	GetDataSourceContents Displays the properties of a given shared data source as XML. If your browser supports XML and if you are an authenticated user with Read Contents permission on the data source, the data source definition is displayed. Native mode example: http://myrshost/reportserver?/Sales/AdventureWorks2012&rs:Command=GetDataSourceContents SharePoint mode example: http://myspsite/subsite/_vti_bin/reportserver?http://myspsite/subsite/Sales/AdventureWorks2012&rs:Command=GetDataSourceContents
	GetResourceContents Renders a resource and displays it in an HTML page if the resource is compatible with the browser. Otherwise, you are prompted to open or save the file or resource to disk. Native mode example: http://myrshost/reportserver?/Sales/StorePicture&rs:Command=GetResourceContents SharePoint mode example: http://myspsite/subsite/_vti_bin/reportserver?http://myspsite/subsite/Sales/StorePicture.jpg&rs:Command=GetResourceContents
	GetComponentDefinition Displays the XML definition associated with a published report item. You must have Read Contents permission on a published report item to use this value.
Format	Specifies the format in which to render a report. Common values include ATOM, HTML4.0, MHTML, IMAGE, EXCEL, WORD, CSV, PDF, XML. The default value is HTML4.0. For more information, see Export a Report Using URL Access. For example to get a PDF copy of a report directly from a Native mode report server. http://myrshost/ReportServer?/myreport&rs:Format=PDF For example in SharePoint mode. http://myspsite/subsite/_vti_bin/reportserver?http://myspsite/subsite/myrereport.rdl&rs:Format=PDF
ParameterLanguage	Provides a language for parameters passed in a URL that is independent of the browser language. The default value is the browser language. The value can be a culture value, such as en-us or de-de. For example in Native mode, to override the browser language and specify a culture value of de-DE. http://myrshost/Reportserver?/SampleReports/Product+Line+Sales&rs:Command=Render&StartDate=4/10/2008&EndDate=11/10/2008&rs:ParameterLanguage=de-DE
Snapshot	Renders a report based on a report history snapshot. For more information, see Render a Report History Snapshot Using URL Access. For example in Native mode, retrieve a report history snapshot dated 2003-04-07 with a timestamp of 13:40:02. http://myrshost/reportserver?/SampleReports/Company Sales&rs:Snapshot=2003-04-07T13:40:02
PersistStreams	Renders a report in a single persisted stream. This parameter is used by the Image renderer to transmit the rendered report one chunk at a time. After using this parameter in a URL access string, use the same URL access string with the GetNextStream parameter instead of the PersistStreams parameter to get the next chunk in the persisted stream. This URL command will eventually return a 0-byte stream to indicate the end of the persisted stream. The default value is false.
GetNextStream	Gets the next data chunk in a persisted stream that is accessed using the PersistStreams parameter. For more information, see the description for PersistStreams. The default value is false.
SessionID	Specifies an established active report session between the client application and the report server. The value of this parameter is set to the session identifier. You can specify the session ID as a cookie or as part of the URL. When the report server has been configured not to use session cookies, the first request without a specified session ID results in a redirection with a session ID. For more information about report server sessions, see Identifying Execution State.
ClearSession	A value of true directs the report server to remove a report from the report session. All report instances associated with an authenticated user are removed from the report session. (A report instance is defined as the same report run multiple times with different report parameter values.) The default value is false.
ResetSession	A value of true directs the report server to reset the report session by removing the report session's association with all report snapshots. The default value is false.
ShowHideToggle	Toggles the show and hide state of a section of the report. Specify a positive integer to represent the section to toggle.
