    With four different ways to get the data, how can you be sure that all reports return the same data? The spreadsheet and the admin portal both call the Reporting web service, which in turn calls the Windows PowerShell cmdlets. You can also call those cmdlets directly. The Windows PowerShell cmdlets are the only things that access the datamart directly, which ensures that every different type of access method has the same data.

    However REST web service is highly customisable so maybe that is why it is the answer – seems like it could be any to me.

    I agree with Alison.

    Adding to that, the question states ‘Which #should# you use’, MS really recommends using the flexibility in reporting that the REST reporting web service offers.
