Publish from Local Directory Dialog Box Properties

This topic describes how you can use the Publish from Local Directory dialog box to publish resources to the Report Server resource tree from a local directory.

Server displays the dialog box when you select Publish > From Local Directory on the task bar of the Resources page on the Server Console.

Publish Resource To

Server shows the folder in the server resource tree, which you will publish resources to.

From Zipped File

Specify where you want to get resources. Select Browse to specify the location.

Publish files and folders in the zipped file to /XXX

Select to publish files and folders in the zipped file to /XXX directly.

When this option is cleared, the following properties are available, which are the properties of the new folder you want to create in /XXX to locate the resources in the zip file.

• Resource Node Name
  Specify the node name of the folder. Server needs the name as the display name of the folder in the server resource tree.
• Resource Description
  Specify the description of the folder.
• Resource Real Path
  Specify the real path of the folder.
