Passing a parameter via URL to SQL Server Reporting Services - url

I'm trying to pass a userId (string) in the URL which will be passed to the database and used by a query in SSRS.
base URL:
http://blah/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=MyReport
I tried this, but it doesn't work:
http://blah/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=MyReport&UserId=fred
Any ideas?

First, be sure to replace Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath= with ReportServer?. In other words, instead of this:
http://server/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=/ReportFolder/ReportSubfolder/ReportName
Use this syntax:
http://server/ReportServer?/ReportFolder/ReportSubfolder/ReportName
Parameters can be referenced or displayed in a report using #ParameterName, whether they're set in the report or in the URL. You can attach parameters to the URL with &ParameterName=Value.
To hide the toolbar where parameters are displayed, add &rc:Toolbar=false to the URL (reference).
Putting that together, you can run a URL with embedded values, or call this as an action from one report and read by another report:
http://server.domain.com/ReportServer?/ReportFolder1/ReportSubfolder1/ReportName&UserID=ABC123&rc:Toolbar=false
In the report's dataset properties query: SELECT stuff FROM view WHERE User = #UserID
In the report, set the expression value to [UserID] (or =Fields!UserID.Value)
Keep in mind that if a report has multiple parameters, you might need to include all parameters in the URL, even if blank, depending on how your dataset query is written. That means repeating the parameter name for multiple values of the same parameter, too.
To pass a parameter using Action = Go to URL, set expression to:
="http://server.domain.com/ReportServer?/ReportFolder1/ReportSubfolder1/ReportName&UserID="
&Fields!UserID.Value
&"&rc:Toolbar=false"
&"&rs:ClearSession=True"
Be sure to have a space after an expression if followed by & (a line break is isn't enough). No space is required before an expression. This method can pass a parameter but does not hide it as it is visible in the URL.
If you don't include &rs:ClearSession=True then the report won't refresh until browser session cache is cleared.
To pass a parameter using Action = Go to report:
Specify the report
Add parameter(s) to run the report
Add parameter(s) you wish to pass (the parameters need to be defined in the destination report, so to my knowledge you can't use URL-specific commands such as rc:toolbar using this method); however, I suppose it would be possible to read or set the Prompt User checkbox, as seen in reporting sever parameters, through custom code in the report)
For reference, see this page on URL encoding, e.g. / = %2f

As well as what Shiraz said, try something like this:
http://<server>/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2f<path>%2f<ReportName>&rs:Command=Render&UserID='fred'
Note the path would only work if you are in a single folder. When I have to do this I simply browse to the report using the reportserver path ("reports" is the report manager) and copy the url then add &<ParameterName>=<value> to the end.

Try changing "Reports" to "ReportServer" in your url

According to Microsoft, the format basically is:
http://<server>/reportserver?/<path>/<report>&rs:Command=Render&<parameter>=<value>

Try passing multiple values via url:
/ReportServer?%2fService+Specific+Reports%2fFilings%2fDrillDown%2f&StartDate=01/01/2010&EndDate=01/05/2010&statuses=1&statuses=2&rs%3AFormat=PDF
This should work.

I solved a similar problem by passing the value of the available parameter in the URL instead of the label of the parameter.
For instance, I have a report with a parameter named viewName and the predefined Available Values for the parameter are: (labels/values) orders/sub_orders, orderDetail/sub_orderDetail, product/sub_product.
To call this report with a URL to render automatically for parameter=product, you must specify the value not the label.
This would be wrong:
http://server/reportserver?/Data+Dictionary/DetailedInfo&viewName=product&rs:Command=Render
This is correct:
http://server/reportserver?/Data+Dictionary/DetailedInfo&viewName=sub_product&rs:Command=Render

Use the URL, mentioned below to open the report in a new window with dynamic parameters.
="javascript:void(window.open('http://Servername/ReportServer?/Foldername/Reportname&rs:Commnd=Render&parameter1=" & Fields!A.Value & "&parameter2=" & Fields!B.Value & "'))"

Try changing "Reports" to "ReportServer" in your url.
For that just access this http://host/ReportServer/ and from there you can go to the report pages. There append your parmaters like this
&<parameter>=<value>

URL first SSRS parameter not affect to report

All parameters transferred to URL are transferred to the report, except the first one. Date is taken by default.
http://s7bi.group.s7/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2f...%8f&rs:rp_DateBeg=21/07/2019&rp_DateEnd=05/08/2019&rp_APCode=SIP&rp_isUTC=UTC&rp_FlightNumber=913;264
rp_DateBeg is ignore by report
How can I set DateBeg parameter directly coming from URL
How to pass right date from url to parameter?
can you change culture value from url like below?
rs:Command=Render this might help as well.
//myrshost/Reportserver?/SampleReports/Product+Line+Sales&rs:Command=Render&StartDate=4/10/2008&EndDate=11/10/2008&rs:ParameterLanguage=de-DE

How do I pass url parameters within url parameters

I want to show a pdf using google viewer like this:
https://drive.google.com/viewerng/viewer?embedded=true&url=http://unec.edu.az/application/uploads/2014/12/pdf-sample.pdf
But my page should be opened with parameters like this:
https://mywebsite.com/pdfgenerator.xhtml?parameter1=true&parameter2=false
(On this page a pdf is generated, and that is not a valid website)
That means that I should pass parameters within the url parameter of the first page, but then they get interpreted as the parameters for the first page.
https://drive.google.com/viewerng/viewer?embedded=true&url=https://mywebsite.com/pdfgenerator.xhtml?parameter1=true&parameter2=false
How do I solve this problem? How do I pass a parameter within a parameter? I can't find any information about it.
Thank you for your help.
It's solved: If you encode it using encodeURIComponent and then pass it as the parameter it works. If you need to do it quickly you can use this TryIt from W3Schools. Adjust the address, click run and click the button, then copy the link.

Jmeter: Dynamic URL encrypted

I'm working on a test plan with Jmeter.
The issue is that I can't retrieve the URL link as he is managed dynamically.
The URL has the following format:
localhost\blablabla?PATHPARAM=qzflh%2FGJHBGDCV%GROPJHVFFFDDFGGCFD%JJYTGVFRTVFGGFF%JUYGBG
I already try to search the value of PATHPARAM in the previous requests to retrieve it using regular expression extractor but I didn't find it.
It seems that this url is generated inside a javascript code but the way to extract it is unknown for me, inside the js code I find the value : var url = actionName + "?" + params ;
Is that any way to catch the content or the var url in Jmeter, else have you any other solution to solve this issue with this dynamic URL.
Many thanks in advance for your help.
I can see 2 possible options:
If you are being redirected to this URL automatically (you might need to play with Redirect Automatically and Follow Redirects boxes in the HTTP Request sampler
If this is the case - you should be able to get it using the following Regular Expression Extractor configuration
If you need to replicate the logic of this param variable calculation - you can attempt to do it using JSR223 PreProcessor which can execute arbitrary JavaScript code

How do I add a parameter to a URL like '?=website-name'

Like the question says, how do I add a parameter to a URL?
Example:
When you click on a link to get a featured product on Product Hunt, the URL is appended with ?ref=producthunt.
Can I just add a parameter like this manually to the few links that I have on my website? Are there any scenarios where this might be suboptimal to do?
The parameters in the URL correspond to the superglobal $_GET array.
It means that if your URL is in the form
www.domain.com?key1=val1&key2=val2 ,
then $_GET[key1] contains val1 , and so on.
It is perfectly legitimate to add these parameters manually in a link (a typical use case would be a login button, which redirects you to the current URL and appends &todo=login . You can then add a bit of PHP code that triggers the login process when $_GET contains the value 'login' at the key 'todo').
The other way of adding these parameters is forms. In an HTML form, you specify a 'method' which can be 'get' or 'post'.
If you choose 'get', when the form is submitted, the URL will automatically be appended with the form answers.
NB: It is generally NOT SAFE to directly read values from the $_GET, as the user can fill it with any value (just by changing the URL) so it is good practice to use filters that ensure inputs are safe. Check http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_filter.asp for more on filters
The parameters added to the url is called query string and they have a format
it must start will ?
every paraper will be seperated with &
Example: http://www.yoururl.com?name=myname&age=34&ect=somethingelse
The mistake you did is by putting ?= which is not converted by your web server.
you can pas like '?websitename=website-name'
Querystring parameters are key value pairs that are separated from the URL's domain and path with a ? and separated from each other with an &, i.e ?key=value&key2=value2.
The values can be accessed client-side (in Javascript) and server-side by the webserver or by a server-side language is being used, PHP, ASP.NET, Java.
Some values should be encoded using a function such as encodeURIComponent to ensure that they are valid.
Risks
You need to be careful that the querystring does not contain any sensitive information such as a sequential order number, i.e ?order=5 as someone could manually change the value to see another user's order (?order=6, if no other authentication in place). The order value should be encrypted so it cannot be guessed. Also, do not execute any code passed in on the querystring with eval() as the contents could be changed by a malicious user to execute a crosssite scripting (XSS) attack on another user and steal their cookie or login credentials.

SSRS 2008 Rpt Bldr 3: Go to URL action not setting parameters

I have a report which has a Go To URL link where I build a custom URL to open with selected parameters embedded. This SHOULD open the report and set the parameters so that the report runs, but it does not. Instead I get "Parameter is missing a value" error because the URL does not set the parameter values.
Here is my URL expression in the main report:
="javascript:void(window.open('"&Globals!ReportServerUrl.Replace("/ReportServer","")&"/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fRptFolder%2fsubrptMiscPHDetails&rs:Command=Render&param1="&Parameters!param1.Value.ToString()& "&param2="&Parameters!param2.Value.ToString()&"'))"
That generates this URL which DOES open the report properly:
http://<server>/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=/RptFolder/subrptMiscPHDetails&rs:Command=Render&param1=2011&param2=1
However, the parameters do not set set in the report itself as expected. I have checked the names of the parameters and they match exactly.
Anyone see what could be missing?
Thank you!
The answer is I need to use the Reportserver not the manager, so this URL is the one that works:
http://<server>/ReportServer?/Editorial/subrptMiscPHDetails&rs:Command=Render&param1=2011&param2=1
