This appears to be somewhat out of date. You can download a report which is in .rdl format directly from the API:

Check out: https://app.swaggerhub.com/apis/danmonteiro/SSRS-ageradora/2.0#/Reports/GetReportContent

Here's an example url that sends back the file:

http://10.0.15.78/reports/api/v2.0/Reports(8bf3f3c9-8f72-4c1a-b9bb-54b8ff1d6729)/Content/$value

I just tried this against report server in the browser and it immediately asked where I wanted to save the file.
