Accessing Jaspersoft Server from webapp

[flw96302]

Hello Community,

I am currently programming a webapp, which has to export data in the form of exports. So I decided to implement Jaspersoft Server to get the exports with REST API-calls, but I couldn't figure out how to do it properly.

My questions are:
Can I export reports from Jaspersoft Server using only RestAPI-calls?
Do I have to upload a blueprint of that report first?

I hope you can help me.
Thank you in advance

This is how you can create a rest v2 call

http://localhost:8080/jasperserver/rest_v2/reports/reports/reportname.pdf?parameter_name=somevalue

You need to have the jrxml uploaded to the server before making rest call

You'll need to specify j_username=<username>&j_password=<password> in your uri to get authentication to access the report.
