SSRS Report usage metrics

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 471

Hi All,

We have got a typical requirement. Our client want to know how many times each report has been run so far and who ran it and do that moving forward as well. 

So, with some research, I got some links to access some information about report statistics which is based on report server DB. 

https://blog.jpries.com/2013/08/19/ssrs-usage-reporting-with-ssrs/ 

https://stevestedman.com/2016/01/ssrs-report-usage-queries/ 

However, the user that I get from those select statements is the SQL Login user instead of F&O user.

So, I need three things,

1. How do I find which F&O user accessed the report each time?

2. The select statements that were given there were on ReportServerDB. How do I fetch these details into F&O?

3. Here in Dev, I have access to ReportServerDB. What do I do with Prod?

Also, I thought, I would create a table in F&O and populate it from ReportServerDB through SQL batch job at SQL Server. However, I got a question again. Will Microsoft help us to setup a SQL Batch job in Prod as we won't be able to do it on our own?

Regards,

Verma MC

    Hi Verma,

    You could check the method to access Prod DB directly and run the direct SQL:

    axparadise.com/.../

    For setting up a batch job on your Production, suggest you to raise to a ticket for Microsoft.

    Thanks for the article, Will.

    But, will I be able to access the ReportServerDB over the select statements that are supplied to dialog just like in the above article in Prod. Do I don't need to have access to the Reportserver DB as I may not be the SQL adminstrator there?

    Hi Verma,

    You cannot connect to Microsoft SQL server of production and you don’t have any access of production server SQL. But you could use X++ to reach it.
