How to send report through email one time i.e. without subscription for recurrent emailing?

I want to send a deployed report (report manager), through email, by calling reportingServices webservice. But the requirement is that, time is not fixed for sending this email, so I want to trigger the sending of report as a one time event, no subscription to a daily time...

How should I go about it?

Hello,

As I see it you have two choices, you could either create a one time subscription on the fly (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.wssux.reportingserviceswebservice.rsmanagementservice2005.reportingservice2005.createsubscription.aspx) or a create a Delivery Extension (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms154050.aspx) that has email as the delivery method. The first option is the easiest and most straight forward. Create a new subscription with a schedule to run the report one time at a time 5 minutes from then.

Good luck,

Larry
