Download all SSRS reports

Question

I want to get a copy of all .rdl files in one server. I can do the download manually one report at the time, but this is time consuming especially that this server has around 1500 reports.

Is there any way or any tool that allows me to download all the .rdl files and take a copy of them?

Answer 1

There is a complete & simpler way to do this using PowerShell.

This code will export ALL report content in the exact same structure as the Report server. Take a look at the Github wiki for other options & commands
