Create Report Snapshot from SSIS

I need to create a SSRS report snapshot at the end of an SSIS package (seems like this would be a common task). I tried connecting to the ReportingService web service to do this but I get the following error when after I select the web service in the Web Service Task:

This version of the Web Services Description Language (WSDL) is not supported.

Is there as simple way to do what I want?

The Web Service task has some limitations in respect to what WSDL it can consume. Put bluntly it is not much use in practice.

The easiest way to do this would be to write a custom task. You could do this in a script task, but generating the proxy class from WSDL and installing it for use by the Script Task would be almost as much work as just doing it all in a custom task. There are only a few lines of code required to actually call the methods, it is not hard.

I'm interested in doing the exact same thing. Can you provide a sample or template for how to do this? By writting a custom task, do I still have to create the proxy? What would the custom task look like?

Thanks for your help!

See the ReportingService2005.UpdateReportExecutionSnapshot method.

The proxy class is just WS wrapper class, if you write a custom task, then I would expect you to add the web reference directly into you project, there is no point in creating a proxy. The Script task does not allow you to add web references, so it is a must in that case.
