Request

Supported Media Types

Path Parameters

• reportPath: string
  URL encoded report path. For example, if your report path is "/Sample Lite/Published Reporting/Reports/Balance Letter" then your encoded report path will be "%2FSample%20Lite%2FPublished%20Reporting%2FReports%2FBalance%20Letter". Use double encoded forward slash when you send a REST request to BI Publisher through a load balancer that isn't configured to pass encoded slashes. For example, if your report path is "/Sample Lite/Published Reporting/Reports/Balance Letter" then your encoded report path will be Sample%20Lite%252FPublished%20Reporting%252FReports%252FBalance%20Letter
