Is there a way to pass parameters to the report via querystring instead of from the UI ?

I have a case where parameters are supplied by the running application and not by the user using some kind of UI.

Thanks.

Are you talking about the URL or running a fex within a fex? Please clarify.

But be aware of the fact that any URL has a limit in terms of length. This limit is 2083 characters for IE. Any URL longer than that will be truncated without any warning, possibly providing the most curious results.
