History Id and SnapShot Id
Hi,
Wanted to clarify some doubts about Report History and Snapshot.
1. What is the difference between the snapshot id and history id. Report Snapshots are stored in the report history.
When I call CreateReportHistorySnapshot method programmatically, the method returns a history Id. Is this id different from the snapshot id (report snapshot which is stored in the history). If the id's are different how can I get the snapshot id ?
2. The History id is a date-time stamp of the snapshot. This string is used as a unique identifier for the historical snapshot. It contains the time portion till seconds(not milliseconds). Hence ifI generate the next snapshot in the same second it gets overridden.
Is there any way to create more snapshots in the same second ?
Is there any way to change the algorithm used to generate history ids ? eg : Can I use some unique id generator and get history id using this algorithm ?
Thanks in advance,
