At present, I have an on-prem K2 and SQL server installation with SSRS. I create and email many PDF reports (more complicated than just a form) by integrating SSRS and K2. We're moving to the cloud and may not have SSRS in Azure. Is there a good way to create and email PDF's without SSRS?

Hello Nigle,
There is two way you can generate the PDF.
- Generate with the form by using generate PDF by form URL
- Generate with HTML by using generate PDF by using HTML control ( this approach you can go if you really need an interactive UI on PDF)
- you can write a store procedure with all control in HTML and return the stored proc as HTML and pass the HTML output to generate PDF K2 smart object.
Hope this will help you.

+5Hi,
That makes sense. I was looking for a reporting style solution rather than an HTML solution but it is an option and we don't have too many reports. HTML may be more flexible at the end of the day.
Thanks,
