Creating reports and dashboards | Stimulsoft community forum

New user, we are trying to understand integration into our system. Our process so far

1. We create reports (starting at the beginning)
2. These reports have a data source, a SQL Query, with a data connection to a SQL Server database.
3. We save the report to an MRT file

So far, everything works great. Now I want to take this report have it rendered server side and pushed to web clients (assume through an ASP server). We are using the Web version and the flex version, ideally we use these reports that we just created with data connections, sql etc...

Here is where I am getting stuck. The examples I see for web and flex versions use custom data sets and different data load mechanisms through XML/XSD files. Is there a way to take a report that already defines data access, data formats and data filters (sql) and formatting and display that on the web and flex viewers via a web client without writing custom loaders for each report?

Hello.

If the connection has already specified in the report you don't need to add Data Sources again.
But you should remember that the reports are rendered on the server side. So the data should be accessible from it.

Thank you.
