It is not supported such an approach as all of the reports are coming from a flat source, so no indication on the source is possible. In the way the tool is set at this stage, it is not possible to add such a functionality easily. However, this may be a good addition features wise, but we will need to agree on proper design and make a larger refactoring (and testing). I could assist in what concerns the design, but I have no time at this moment to tackle such change. You for sure are welcome to give it a try.
I'll le this issue open and ark it as a feature request.
I just wanted to share my workaround here, in case it is useful to anyone else. (And, it may be able to be incorporated into the task to add this feature)
I created a powershell script to look at a folder structure (output from visual studio) and generate a very basic SSRS config file in json. So, basically, whatever the folder structure that Visual Studio outputs, you can use this powershell to generate a config file to use for input to this task.
param([String]$sourceFolder="", [String]$outputFile="")
$folders =
Get-ChildItem -Path $sourceFolder -Filter '*.rdl' -Recurse |
Where-Object {$_.FullName.Contains('bin')} |
Group-Object -Property {$_.Directory.FullName.Replace($sourceFolder, '') -replace '\\bin\\.*', ''} |
Where-Object {$_.Count -gt 0} |
Foreach-Object {
[pscustomobject]@{
Name = $_.Values[0].Replace($sourceFolder, '');
Reports = $_.Group |
Foreach-Object {
[pscustomobject]@{
Name = $_.Name.Replace('.rdl', '');
FileName = $_.FullName.Replace($sourceFolder, '');
};
}
}
}
$root = [pscustomobject]@{
Name = 'Root';
Folders = $folders;
}
ConvertTo-Json $root -Depth 5 | Out-File -FilePath $outputFile

Thank you so much for this!
Duplicate. Refer to issues #7 for more details.
Is there are way to write the configuration file so that it can deploy multiple/all reports ao a specific folder without listing each report file by name or do you have to customize the build/release process each time a developer adds a report?
