 Please consider to provide access to the Report Server API via client (most probably Javascript). We want to get a report rendered in a given format in a Java based application by creating a custom client of the service.

The Report Server API is exposed and can be used with any custom client that can submit the required requests - http://docs.telerik.com/report-server/apis/rest-api/api-reference.
Examples: http://docs.telerik.com/report-server/apis/rest-api/examples/javascript/export

We are using the HTML viewer and that works if you want to view everything from the web. It does not help if you need to generate a report and attach it to an email if the report is located on the Report Server.

@Leo li: You can use the integration with the HTML5 Viewer, where the HTML5 Viewer is a Javascript widget that can be connected to the Report Server. For more details, please check http://docs.telerik.com/reporting/html5-report-viewer-howto-use-it-with-reportserver.

@Jerel Byrd: Thank you for the additional notes, exposing the Report Server API is considered for a consecutive release.
