Dose URL Access ultimately translated into a soap request to the reporting services Webservice? -- sql server reporting services

I know that for rendering a report you can use URL access or Soap
APIs.Developers usually prefer to use URL access as it is much simpler than
using the API.I just wondered if the URL request is translated into a soap
equest to the webservice. I have the impression that Reporting services is
nothing than one mr mutltiple web services whcih extract data from
Database.Am I right?

Thanks

Yes, you are absolutely right, RS uses web services to do the work. You can
call the web services directly from your application or you can use the
ReportServer application that comes with RS via "URL access". I do both
depending on the situation.
