Access SSRS 2016 New Reporting Portal

I have been trying out the SQL Server CTP 3.1 for a while. For a couple a weeks ago Microsoft released CTP 3.2 (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sqlrsteamblog/archive/2015/12/17/introducing-mobile-reports-and-a-brand-new-web-portal.aspx) which should include the new Reporting Portal and the possibility to use the new Mobile Reports feature.

I have successfully upgraded my CTP 3.1 installation to 3.2. For some reason I cannot see/access the link to "Preview the new Reporting Services"

Microsoft indicated that the link to the preview of the new portal should be found in the upper left hand corner of the Reporting Portal. But I there is nothing visual to me.

enter image description here

Has anyone tried it out and successfully launched the preview of the new portal? Am I missing some setting?

You can go directly to the preview portal:

 http://<server>/reports_preview

I found a solution. By trigger an update of the Report Manager URL I succeeded to get the preview portal working. It seemed like the preview URL was not created in the update, for some reason..

  1. Navigate to Reporting Services Configuration Manager
  2. Go to "Report Manager URL"
  3. Change the virtual directory to someting else, click "Apply". Let the configuration manager to its thing. After complete, you can change back to the original value (Reports) again (and press Apply).

This should do the trick!
