Data Sources
Through URL requests, you can also view the contents of data sources. Let's again take a look at the
Professional SQL Reporting Services folder. Enter the following URL to view the contents of this folder:
http://localhost/reportserver?%2fProfessional+SQL+Reporting+Services&rs:Command=
ListChildren
You'll see the listing of items, as shown in Figure 12-2.
You will notice that one of the items listed is AdventureWorks. You can tell that this item is a data source
by the <ds> tag next to the item name. If you follow the AdventureWorks link, you will be able to view
the contents of that data source. Figure 12-3 shows the AdventureWorks data source contents.
Let's take a look at the URL used to view the AdventureWorks data source: http://localhost/
reportserver?%2fProfessional+SQL+Reporting+Services%2fAdventureWorks2000&rs:Command=
