The migration of the SQL Reporting component of Windows Azure from the old portal to the newer html 5 one has in the process limited the folder hierarchy to 2 levels deep (As indicated in this article).

The article does however state that existing reporting services can still have deeper hierarchies; whilst Business Intelligence Development Studio still allows you to deploy to the sub folder.

We have preserved our hierarchy like so:

Root Level Client Reports Internal Reports Report Category 1 Data Source Report1.rdl Report2.rdl Report Category 2



Due to the number of reports we have it is unfeasible to have every folder at root level and, thus far, the hierarchy has still be functioning correctly.

However we have run into a problem; we can no longer update any data sources or delete reports that are more than 2 levels deep.
