Management Reporter - How to Enable Access outside of the Firewall via SSL

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Has anyone been able to publish MR reports accessible from outside of the firewall via HTTPS ?  Basically, configure the MR Web Viewer with HTTPS and bind the service to a a public certificate; similar to how SRS reports or GP Web Client runs.

    Ian, now that this is available, it seems there is no documentation regarding this feature.  Do you have any insights?

    Ian,

    I have searched EVERY known place but I just cannot find the answer to the following:

     

    The proper location information in the Companion Application Services for the MR reports so that they appear in Business Analyzer?

     

    I put the UNC and non UNC path to where I have created the MR reports (does not work)

    I have put the library location (does not work)

    I've not done much with Business Analyzer; it is on my long list of things to look into further.

    As is CU14 which I forgot had been released until earlier today.

    Thanks Ian.  I already voted UP the Microsoft connect recommendation on HTTPS enabling MR.  Other than enforcing a VPN on all users to view financial reports, there seems to be no other good solutions (delivering MR via Email is not even an option).  Have you used Business Analyzer to publish MR reports?  Also, there seems to be an issue with CU14 of MR not publishing the list of reports in the MR navigation list.

    I don't believe this is available yet for Management Reporter
