Kinetic Report Style .RDL Upload Gotcha

Hopefully this saves someone else some time:

When you upload an SSRS report to a report style, the zip file NEEDS to be named “reports.zip” WITH a lower case “r” otherwise it will throw an “Archive with reports was not found” error. This is counter-intuitive, because if you download an .RDL file from another report style and work from that, the top folder is called Reports with a CAPITAL “R”. So zipping it all up again, by default, capitalizes the file name.

Using Kinetic is so fun…

Hmmm

Rename

Verified! - This is pretty pants! @timshuwy What we have multiple sub folders with historical reports per company.. Can’t just have one zip folder called. REPORTS.ZIP
