Parameters
- Properties
- An array of Property[] objects that defines the system properties and values to set for a report server.
Permissions
| Operation | Description |
| Update System Properties | Required to modify system-level properties. |
Remarks
Users can add additional custom system properties that are not reserved by the system. If a property specified in the Property[] array does not exist, it is created. If a value for a property exists, it is overwritten. You cannot create or remove reserved system properties. Depending on the system property being set, the functionality of the report server may change. For a list of reserved system properties, see Report Server System Properties. If errors occur, no properties are set.
You can remove the value of a property by setting the property to an empty value.
Example

Visual Basic, C#
To compile the following code example, you must reference the Reporting Services WSDL and import certain namespaces. For more information, see Compiling and Running Code Examples. The following code example creates a new system property named Description in the report server database:

Visual Basic
Imports System
Imports System.Web.Services.Protocols
Class Sample
Public Shared Sub Main()
Dim rs As New ReportingService()
rs.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials
Dim setProp As New [Property]()
setProp.Name = "Description"
setProp.Value = "My report server that resides on the computer named RSSERVER1."
Dim props(0) As [Property]
props(0) = setProp
Try
rs.SetSystemProperties(props)
Console.WriteLine("New site property set.")
Catch ex As SoapException
Console.WriteLine(ex.Detail.OuterXml)
End Try
End Sub 'Main
End Class 'Sample

C#
using System;
using System.Web.Services.Protocols;
class Sample
{
public static void Main()
{
ReportingService rs = new ReportingService();
rs.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
Property setProp = new Property();
setProp.Name = "Description";
setProp.Value = "My report server that resides on the computer named RSSERVER1.";
Property[] props = new Property[1];
props[0] = setProp;
try
{
rs.SetSystemProperties( props );
Console.WriteLine( "New site property set." );
}
catch (SoapException ex)
{
Console.WriteLine( ex.Detail.OuterXml);
}
}
}
