    I believe Dynamic CRM 365 only support FetchXml report.

    Hello,

    I would suggest to download reports and check datasources or if you have an access to Reporting Services server just log in there and check datasources types for reports.

    Hi,

    Please refer to below post. The steps are provided.

    [View:https://community.dynamics.com/crm/f/117/p/268143/759055#759055:750:50]

    You can create a sql query or console application.

    If you are planning to use console application, use below fetchxml to get the body text and check is the string contain "<ConnectionProperties><DataProvider>SQL</DataProvider>"

    Sample fetchxml 

        var fetchxml = "<fetch distinct='false' mapping='logical' output-format='xml-platform' version='1.0'>" +
                             "<entity name='report'>" +
                                "<all-attributes />" +
                              "</entity>" +
                          "</fetch>";

            EntityCollection result = m_service.RetrieveMultiple(new FetchExpression(fetchxml));



            foreach (Entity re in result.Entities)
            {
                string bodytext = (string)re.Attributes["bodytext"];
                // put the checking here
                Console.WriteLine(bodytext);
            }

    Please refer to Check Andrew Butenko's answer. Other is just check the dataset query. If using SQL query, then it is sql based report. :)
