Can I load a report by its Guid?

Yes. The Bold Reports® Report Viewer can load a report by its Guid instead of its location.

You can also load the report using the Guid instead of report location. Set the Guid of the report in reportPath as follows: reportPath: ‘91f24bf1-e537-4488-b19f-b37f77481d00’. You can use the Bold Reports® Server’s Get Items API to find the Guid of the report.
