Hi,&nbsp;A valid SSRS 2016 server name is something like this&nbsp;http://myserver.cloudapp.net/reports if you are deploying your server to an Azure VM.&nbsp;All the best,Yitzhak

Are you able to access the portal from a browser?Note that for azure VM you also need to configure an endpoint (https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/virtual-machines-windows-classic-setup-endpoints/).Also make sure your firewall&nbsp;configuration is&nbsp;for public profile (by default you only see the domain profile firewall configuration)&nbsp;
