Web.BrowserContents

‎05-28-2021 02:23 AM

Hi! I retrieve data from a web page using Web.BrowserContents. It works well in Desktop but when I upload it to Report server I get the error below. Do you know what the error is due to? I have anonymous under data source.

 

The module named 'WebBrowserContents' has been disabled in this context.. The exception was raised by the IDbCommand interface.

 Can I use something else than WebBrowserContents?

 

Thanks!

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Have you granted access for Report server on Web sources?
