the custom code in paginated report in report server not working

Hi,

I custom a function in my report builder which can get response json from other server and generate a new url for me. my code is like this:

Function Div_RT(ByVal DR As String) As String
Dim request_bbox As System.Net.HttpWebRequest
Dim response_bbox As System.Net.HttpWebResponse = Nothing
Dim reader_bbox As System.IO.StreamReader
Dim DR2 as String = Replace(DR, ",","_")
Dim getbbox_url as String
getbbox_url ="http://XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
request_bbox = DirectCast(request_bbox.Create(getbbox_url), System.Net.HttpWebRequest)
response_bbox = DirectCast(request_bbox.GetResponse(), System.Net.HttpWebResponse)
reader_bbox = New System.IO.StreamReader(response_bbox.GetResponseStream())
Dim rawresp As String
rawresp = reader_bbox.ReadToEnd()

Dim s As String
s = Mid(rawresp, InStr(rawresp, "map_get_extent_linkids")+25, InStr(rawresp, "}}]")-InStr(rawresp, "map_get_extent_linkids")-26)

Dim divrt as String
divrt ="http://XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
Div_RT=divrt
End Function

I test this function in my local which can work well( cuz I change the "RSPreviewPolicy" file under C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Report Builder. I update PermissionSetName="FullTrust" instead if "Execution"

then I publish this report to power bi report server, the function cannot work again. so I update the "rssrvpolicy" file under C:\Program Files\Microsoft Power BI Report Server\PBIRS\ReportServer. I update PermissionSetName="FullTrust" instead if "Execution"

but it does not work in power bi report server. I also restart the server. can you help to check how can I make this function work?@

Hi, v-henryk-mstf

Thank you for your reply. but actully, my custom code can work well in report builder. but when I upload it to power bi report server. it cannot get response from outsource web page. therefore the function cannot work. I guess it is caused by report server configuration issue. do you have any idea about this?

Regards,

Tengmin
