Jan,
Thank you for your reply.

We would like to know that if we purchase a subscription to the enterprise license, would we be able to upgrade later to enterprise scale? For example, we buy EL subscription now for ~$295.00, six months from now we need to upgrade to Enterprise scale. Would we just pay the difference of ~$700.00 for the enterprise scale license? Or, are we going to need to buy a new subscription for $995.00?

Thank you for you help

Thank you Jan!
Very pleased with the product, specially with the flexibility to design complex reports.

Can I add my license key to the Configuration "Application Settings" section of the application service running in Azure app service Docker? All other JS Report settings are located here. If so, what is the name of the setting? Thank you.

Jan,
I found the root of the problem. This behavior is apparently related to the MS Edge browser. Since I decided to save my password the first time I launched the app and logged in, every time I load a sample template the "pdf-password" property is automatically filled with the save password used in the login screen. Once I deleted the saved password from the profile I no longer experience the problem. By the way, I tested in Firefox and Chrome also. These two browsers do not present the problem.
Thank you for your help.

Jan,

I was able to successfully configure jsreport to save templates in an azure storage account. The problem was what I was missing a character in the settings for the storage account. Once I corrected the issue and re-started the app service the app created a blob container "jsreport" and I can see the templates created. I was also able to import a custom report I created into the azure web app and this report template was also saved into the blob storage.
I am impressed with the product and its overall architecture. I will be presenting my POC solution to the engineering team and recommend its use in our SaaS solution.
Thank you very much for your help.

Jan,

I added the "fsStore" extension application settings and this time the application did NOT crash. I am sure I repeated the same steps as before. I copied the log content from the Azure "Log stream" interface. As you can see the logs seem to indicate that "fs store" is configured and initialized successfully. However, the templates are NOT being saved in the azure storage account at all. Every time I re-start the app service, it recreates the samples again. Am I missing another configuration? Thank you for your help.

Jan,

Yes, I refreshed the app (F5) several times. It still requires a password. Here is a summary of what I've found.

• It appears that the issue is related to the chrome-pdf recipe. The problem does not happen when I change the recipe to "html".
• Unfortunately we do need the chrome-pdf recipe for the application we are designing and building.
• I noticed that all reports set to chrome-pdf are eventually set with a password in the "pdf-password" property by the environment.
• I created a simple report template in my local VS Code environment and exported the zip file. Then I imported it into my azure jsreport deployment. Even this simple report is eventually set with a password in the properties, which in turn causes the app to prompt you with a password dialog box while running the report.
• After I enter the password, the report renders fine. What am I missing? Thank you for your help.

I get the error shown below after configuring azure storage account to store report templates.

I created an azure storage account as indicated in the documentation.

I added the following application settings to the App Service:

extensions_fsStore_persistence_provider=azure-storage
extensions_fsStoreAzureStoragePersistence_accountName=jsreportstorageaccount
extensions_fsStoreAzureStoragePersistence_accountKey=<my key>

Since this is a proof of concept project I did not configure an azure service bus at this time. I understand that this is optional.

Thank you for your help.

I get the following error while running the orders-main sample report in my azure deployment.

"Error while executing user script. require of "https" module has been blocked. To be able to require custom modules you need to add to configuration { "allowLocalFilesAccess": true } or enable just specific module using { "extensions": { "scripts": { "allowedModules": ["https"] } }."

I added the "allowLocalFilesAcces" application setting to the configuration for the App Service. After adding this setting the app is asking me to enter a password for every report I run.

Thank you for your help
