IN SSRS, is there a way to disable the rdl.data file creation

In SSRS, I noticed that the rdl.data cache files are being stored on my dev machine. Are these files also stored on the Reports Server when reports are run? If so, is there a way to avoid creating those files on the server?

PowerShell to the rescue, just hide it - add a PowerShell project to your Reports solution and set it as the start-up project in your build configuration:

$path = "../*.rdl.data"

$rdlDataFiles = Get-ChildItem -Recurse -Force -Path "$path";

Write-Output "$path"

$rdlDataFiles | ForEach-Object {
  Write-Output "Hiding *.rdl.data file $_"

  $_.Attributes = $_.Attributes -bor (([System.IO.FileAttributes]::Hidden))

  # Next line isn't required per say, but just a guard.
  $_.Attributes = $_.Attributes -bor (-bnot([System.IO.FileAttributes]::ReadOnly))
}
