Which Configuration file holds the infirmation about Shared data Source.Sanjeewan

Sanjeevan, In you Report Server project you have by default folder called "Shared Data Sources", under this folder you can have you Shared data sources with file extension "*.rds" But when you deploy these on report server there will not be physical file for shared datasource as every single item deployed on report server goes to "dbo.Catalog" table. Let me know if you have any queriesThanks, Sandip Please "Mark as Answer" if this resolves your problem or "Vote as Helpful" if you find it helpful.

Hi, .RDS File stores this info about shared data source. If you open it in Notepad, you see something like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <RptDataSource xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"> <Name>BI_Reporting</Name> <ConnectionProperties> <Extension>SQL</Extension> <ConnectString>Data Source=<ServerName>;Initial Catalog=<DB NAME></ConnectString> <IntegratedSecurity>true</IntegratedSecurity> </ConnectionProperties> <DataSourceID>84fa6591-61d5-4b2b-ad69-7fe1a3217cb8</DataSourceID> </RptDataSource> Regards, Asim Bagwan Kindly mark the replies as Answers if they help!
