Sonrai.ExtRSNET48 1.0.7

ExtRS.NET48

ExtRS.NET48 is a .NET Framework 4.8 class library for extending the capabilities of Reporting Services. With ExtRS.NET48, (pronounced "extras dot net 48"), common public API endpoints and SDK clients are consolidated into a utility .dll containing features that can compliment your reporting. ExtRS.NET48 also contains a simplified interface to the SSRS v2 API for programmatically managing SSRS catalog item types (CatalogItem, Report, DataSource, DataSet, etc.).

SSRS ain't dead- it's just a niche tool that hasn't fully realized its potential- yet. 😊
