Import data from a Reporting Services Webpage?

Hi all,
Is it possible to easily import data into SQL Server from a public facing Reporting Services webpage?
I'd like to automate the process so don't want to have to download the Excel / CSV files manually. There's an "atomsvc" file available but I can only find information on importing this into PowerPivot / Excel.
I'm on 2012 and have access to Integration Services if that would help, but have no real preference on how I solve this problem.
I'm guessing I could import the Atom feed referenced by the "atomsvc" file as XML data but this seems slightly cumbersome given that the source is also an SQL Server. I'm also a little unsure about how to use authentication in this case.
So is it a parse XML task or am I missing a much more obvious and simple way to import this data?
Thanks

Thanks for your answer, it guided me towards URL
Access (SSRS) for SQL Server Reporting Services.
The .atomsvc file contains a link to the raw data feed. This can be easily tweaked quite extensively. In particular there is a "Format" specifier available which can be used to export as normal XML / CSV / whatever. For example:
http://myrshost/ReportServer?/myreport&rs:Format=XML
http://myrshost/ReportServer?/myreport&rs:Format=CSV
I hope this helps someone. I was as I suspected missing something "obvious" but it was knowing what to Google that tripped me up.
I still can't help thinking that there should be an easy way to just download the .atomsvc file and open it with SQL Management Studio or SSIS rather than PowerPivot but XML / CSV is fairly straight forward o deal with.

Problem Importing Data from Raiser's Edge into Crystal Reports

This is likely going to be a very simple one for the expert community. I am a novice Crystal Reports user. We received our license for the app bundled with the Raiser's Edge donation tracking software.
In previous versions of Crystal, when importing data from a Raiser's Edge export, the default method of data linking was a Left Outer Join.
However, for the latest version, it appears this has defaulted to using an Inner Join, which does not display data the way we'd like it to in our reports.
The fix we use right now (supported by Raiser's Edge support team) is simply to go in and manually adjust all of the reports table links. This can be time-consuming, however.
I would like to know if there is a way to get Crystal to import, by default, using something other than an Inner Join. Simply using the Add Command when importing the data isn't an ideal option as building a custom SQL query each time is about as time-consuming as manually changing each of the links via the Crystal GUI. (part of the reason this would be so time-consuming is that the Raiser's Edge database tables aren't intended to be directly interacted with by the end-user, so getting the information on what table names would be in play is a bit of a process).
The version of Crystal we are running is: 11.0.0.1282, Crystal Standard.
Please let me know if I've left off any vital information needed to help with this query. I'll do my best to fill in any gaps I may have left here.

Hi Michael,
Raiser's Edge db is not ideally supported with Crystal Reports.However, what you may try as of now,is to upgrade the application to release 2 and then check for the results.
Following is the link:
http://resources.businessobjects.com/support/additional_downloads/service_packs/crystal_reports_en.asp#CRXIR2
Please choose the "Service Pack 2 - Full build - ZIP - 1.03 GB - released April 2007" hyperlink.
The same keycode will work for this version also.
Thanks

We have a four server set-up where SCSM, SCDW, and sqls for both are on different servers. Also I have red that this could be a SPN problem, but this has been worked on last week without the SPNs.

On the computer you get the "SQL Reporting Services server is currently unavailable" message please open the Internet Explorer and try to connect to the URL <a href="http:///reports">http://<NameOfReportingServer>/reports
This should open the reporting website in IE. If this isn't working you should check the proxy settings in IE. If the URL doesn't work in IE it won't work in the SCSM console as well (and vice versa).

Actually I can't access to the reporting website. It asks me credentials 3 times and then return a blank page. Also error message comes to the EventViewer System log with id 4 and source Security-Kerberos.
The Kerberos client received a KRB_AP_ERR_MODIFIED error from the server "accountname".
The target name used was HTTP/"reporting services fqn". This indicates that the target server failed to decrypt the ticket provided by the client.
This can occur when the target server principal name (SPN) is registered on an account other than the account the target service is using.
Ensure that the target SPN is only registered on the account used by the server.
This error can also happen if the target service account password is different than what is configured on the Kerberos Key Distribution Center for that target service.
Ensure that the service on the server and the KDC are both configured to use the same password.
If the server name is not fully qualified, and the target domain (domain.com) is different from the client domain (domain.com), check if there are identically named server accounts in these two domains,
or use the fully-qualified name to identify the server.
I can access the website directly from the server which hosts Reporting Services.
Also I query "setspn -Q HTTP/"reporting services fqn" whit result NO SUCH SPN FOUND.

I have no idea what "Oracle Hetrogenius Services" is, so I can't help you with that, sorry.
SQL Developer might also assist you. SQL Developer can connect to SQL Server as well as Oracle and has some tools for migration. See the documentation for details:

Import data from excel file

Hello.
Is anybody can help how to import data from excel file to the form created with designer 7.0. Originally there is a script inside the form to populate drop down list and depending from data selected in the ID number drop down list, there will be filled out the description and the prices text fields. But now I have to modify this form with data from excel file, which has more than 30000 lines and put all this data to script is too much.
So, can somebody know how can I after filling the ID number field , populate the description and price text fields with data from excel file corresponding to this ID number ?
This form is used in Adobe reader.
Any comments are welcome.
Regards,
Aivar

Hi
That's what i said in my prev. Post to clear cache... :)
disable your cache from nqsconfig.ini
In cache section of NQSConfig file,
you find
ENABLE = YES;
set to NO
OR
if you are using data ware house as the source for OBIEE,
you know that when ETL is done, so just create iBot to purge cache automatically at that particular intervals,
So that report runs freshly at that time
And what happened to your View Selector question?

Import data from sql server /vice versa

My Database serevr version is 10.1.0.3.0.
Sql Server 2000.
Is it possible to import data from sql server to oracle database?
Also other way around.
I mean import data from Oracle to sql server.
Regards,
D

Hi,
You can use Heterogeneous Service to do this. This component is free but poor of resources. Simple things you can do with this, complex I really don't know.
Also, to import from sqlserver to oracle you can use Oracle Warehouse Builder, an Oracle ETL tool. But, OWB do not work in other way, oracle to sqlserver.
And why do want to use sqlserver, if you have oracle?

Chrome missing in Import data from another browser

I use both chrome and firefox portable from site portableapps because mozilla doesn´t have a portable version.
My dilemma today is this:
I always had on firefox on menu "import and backup" > > "import data from another browser" listing chrome like this
https://support.mozilla.org/media/uploads/gallery/images/2012-02-24-10-35-53-97ff60.png
today i want to import chrome bookmarks to firefox but chrome is missing on the list, in the past i always had it there listed now is just pointing to IE
Do i need chrome installed on machine to grab something from registry?
By what i can remember always had that option on portable versions, i am importating this with a fresh pc machine because i installed now windows where i previously wiped the disk from manufacturer erasing tool.
i digged the net and on questions here but cant find why its missing, can you guys tell me why?
P.S- i would like to say that this site, Mozilla and Mozilla support, forums and community are the best service i´ve seen in years over the whole web i believe its really the best one and am not writing this because of this question, only thing missing is having Mozilla apps portable, a online chat would be cool too for the community
Oh god i hope today the "fox" saves me cause i can´t find solution on this
You guys take it easy.....

Do you mean the portable version of Google Chrome as well?
*http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/google_chrome_portable
Which that version you probably need to export the bookmarks to an HTML file and import that file in Firefox.
You can open the Bookmarks Manager in Google Chrome (wrench icon > Bookmarks > Bookmarks Manager) and select "Tools > Export Bookmarks"<br />
This will export the Chrome bookmarks to a file bookmarks.html.<br />
You can import that file in Firefox: Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import HTML : "From File"

Import data from another browser - Only few IE9 favorites get transfered to bookmarks. HTML solution - HTML file all favorites correct, but same result

Win7 / IE9: First time use. Example: One favorites folder has 4 HTML entries - only 2 get transferred. Some have none transfered - folder empty. Others have random correct + some missing.

Monday Nght
I can see complete IE9 Favorites HTML list in HTML file on Desktop with Firefox -> New Tab -> Open File.-> Open
In desktop HTML file, there are 37 IE9 folders with no more than nesting 3 deep in any one top folder. These are all correct wrt IE9 favorites.
All top folders + deepest nests are copied to FF ok. Contents random. Copied contents work ok
7 HTML web sites not allocated to IE9 top folders are also copied <- these 7 copy to FF and work ok
Example: First folder in IE9 list has no nesting., IE9 has 4 entries - Firefox has only 2. when either method of copying is used.
BTW - please advise how I can delete whole Bookmark list in Firefox in one keystroke to be able to retry with a clean Bookmark list
I am going to uninstall Firefox and start again with a clean copy and use HTML method only to try to transfer IE( files. I will report result.
BTW, I am in UK on UK time - hence delays in replying - need to sleep sometimes!!!!!
Tuesday Evening
Hi
I uninstalled Firefox. Re installed and loaded IE9 favorites from HTML file.
All seem copied correctly
First time I started by using the "import data from another browser". Partial copied.
Then I tried "Import from HTML file" without deleting whatever favorites had been copied. Still partial copied.
All seems well.

Importing data from an .mht file

I would like to import data from a *.mht file. I can open the file in excel and save it as excel but I want to automate this in SSIS. I found a command line tool but it's not doing it correctly but excel does.
Can I do this in VB script in a VB task?
OR is there an odbc provider for the .mht file so I don't need to convert it at all?
Thanks,
Linda

it converts to an excel manually and then can import it just fine. it's a report and the source will only give us an .mht file for importing into our database.
any ideas how to automate converting to excel in VB script or do I have to build an .exe and run it via command line or something?
Thanks
I seriously doubt anyone around here will know how to do this I'm afraid because its nothing to do with SSIS. What I do know is that you can use the Office PIAs to automate many Excel tasks from .Net code so if you can figure out how to do that then you put the code inside a SSIS script task. At that point we may be able to offer some assistance but not until then.
In other words, if you want to programatically open the .mht file in Excel you'd be better advised to get the advice elsewhere I'm afraid.

Can we update the data from SSRS report to any database ?

Hi Team,
Greetings !!!!
Can we update the data from SSRS report to any database ?
Thanks,
Anand Gavle.

Nope SSRS doesnt have write back options. Its just a reporting tool
However one thing you can do is to link a webpage from SSRS report and do the changes through it
SSRS has the ability to navigate to web page through which you can capture any data inputs from users and save it to your db.

Importing data from Flat file

Hi all Experts,
I am a ABAPer and trying to learn BW by my own. I wanted to import data from flat file and generate some reports on that.
Can anybody tell me the steps starting from the infocubes(guess its the first step), to achieve it. Any help will be a great help for me.
Thanks in Advance,
Smita

1.to start with create infoareas, infoobjects(accoring to what u have in flat file).
2.then create a cube which will include these infoobj's and activate it.
3.create an application component and then create infosource,right click and assign ds to infosource and specify ur PC file source system(whatever system u've), 4.then u'll go to the infosource screen where u need to maintain the exact order of ur file in transfer structure tab, then maintain transfer rules, activate it.
5.create upate rules for ur cube by mentioning this infosource name.
6.create infopackages and schedule them. after data is loaded to cube, use tcode rrmx and logon to bex and find ur cube and then create queries on them.

How to import data from a text file into a table

Hello,
I need help with importing data from a .csv file with comma delimiter into a table.
I've been struggling to figure out how to use the "Import from Files" wizard in Oracle 10g web-base Enterprise Manager.
I have not been able to find a simple instruction on how to use the Wizard.
I have looked at the Oracle Database Utilities - Overview of Oracle Data Pump and the Help on the "Import: Files" page.
Neither one gave me enough instruction to be able to do the import successfully.
Using the "Import from file" wizard, I created a Directory Object using the Create Directory Object button. I Copied the file from which i needed to import the data into the Operating System Directory i had defined in the Create Directory Object page. I chose "Entire files" for the Import type.
Step 1 of 4 is the "Import:Re-Mapping" page, I have no idea what i need to do on this page. All i know i am not tying to import data that was in one schema into a different schema and I am not importing data that was in one tablespace into a different tablespace and i am not R-Mapping datafiles either. I am importing data from a csv file.
For step 2 of 4, "Import:Options" page, I selected the same directory object i had created.
For step 3 of 4, I entered a job name and a description and selected Start Immediately option.
What i noticed going through the wizard, the wizard never asked into which table do i want to import the data.
I submitted the job and I got ORA-31619 invalid dump file error.
I was sure that the wizard was going to fail when it never asked me into which table do i want to import the data.
I tried to use the "imp" utility in command-line window.
After I entered (imp), i was prompted for the username and the password and then the buffer size as soon as i entered the min buffer size I got the following error and the import was terminated:
C:\>imp
Import: Release 10.1.0.2.0 - Production on Fri Jul 9 12:56:11 2004

Enter insert buffer size (minimum is 8192) 30720> 8192
IMP-00037: Character set marker unknown
IMP-00000: Import terminated unsuccessfully
Please show me the easiest way to import a text file into a table. How complex could it be to do a simple import into a table using a text file?
We are testing our application against both an Oracle database and a MSSQLServer 2000 database.
I was able to import the data into a table in MSSQLServer database and I can say that anybody with no experience could easily do an export/import in MSSQLServer 2000.
I appreciate if someone could show me how to the import from a file into a table!
Thanks,
Mitra
