Hey,

Just an update, I successfully got this working by using the overrides capability of the .Net Client.

For anyone else trying to do the same thing, here is an example:

var renderRequest = new RenderRequest
{
  Template = ... // your template
  Data = ... // your data
  Overwrites = new 
  {
    Template = new
    {
      PdfPassword = new
      {
        OwnerPassword = "some password",
        Printing = "highResolution"
        // you can also add the other fields specified at 
        // https://jsreport.net/learn/pdf-utils#password-protection
      }
    }
  }
}

Hi,

I'm currently trying to control the 'access privileges' configuration for PDF Utils when generating a report from the C# client. I'd like to set an Owner Password and Printing Permission to High Resolution. The config in the studio would look like this:

I see that on the C# Template class there is a PdfPassword property of type PdfPassword, however the PdfPassword class doesn't have the options for controlling the permissions described on the PDF Utils documentation. Instead it has a property called ProtectionLevel which is of type string.

Setting the OwnerPassword property does result in the PDF being protected, however, I'm unsure of how to control the permissions through the ProtectionLevel property.

My investigation thus far hasn't turned up much, the only mention of protection levels I managed to find was form the old jsreport-pdf-password extension, however, using those numbers didn't seem to have any effect.

I see the PdfPassword class was last updated on Mar 7, 2020, and that the jsreport-pdf-password extension was deprecated in May 21, 2020, so I'm guessing that the PdfPassword class was created to work with the old extension not Pdf Utils.

I ran out of time today, however, the next thing I was going to try was to use the overrides capability of the .Net Client to provide the pdfPassword config. The documentation says overrides are for providing config for unofficial extensions, but my guess is that it would work for official ones as well.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks :)

Fantastic, thanks for the quick turnaround time. I've updated and can confirm that I am no longer experiencing the issue.

Awesome thanks.

For now I'll add some code on process shutdown to remove those folders until the fix.

Hi,

I'm in the process of doing a PoC using jsreport for the project I'm currently working on.

I'm following the tutorial from https://jsreport.net/learn/dotnet-local, specifically the 'Locally stored templates' option as that workflow of having a console application devs can use to create reports will work well for us.

All is working brilliantly however I'm running into an issue starting up the console application again if a report was run in a previous run of the console application. Steps to replicate are:

• Start the console application
• Run a report (I am just running the Sales report from the examples)
• Shutdown the console application by pressing a key in the console window
• Start the console application again
• The below error presents

If I delete the profiles folder the console application will happily start again.

I have tried to set the 'profiler.defaultMode' setting to 'disabled' both through the 'jsreport.config.json' and the '.Configure(...)' function, however, the profiles are still created. Here is my current config:

{
  "office": {
    "preview": {
      "enabled": false
    }
  },
  "sandbox": {
    "allowedModules": [ "moment", "https" ]
  },
  "profiler": {
    "defaultMode": "disabled"
  } 
}

Profiles also seem to be created regardless of which option I use in the studio to run the report, Run/Run(Full Profile)/Download.

If I go to the Profiler in the studio I see the following:

Hope you can help as I really like this product and I really like the dev workflow which is possible using .Net local reporting.
