The Telerik Web Forms Report Viewer Form VS item template does not install the Telerik.Reporting.Services.WebApi package. However, the controller created with this template has a using statement for it.
Steps To Reproduce
- Create a new Web Forms project.
- Right click on the project name > Add > New Item...
- Choose Telerik Web Forms Report Viewer Form <REPORTING_VERSION>.
- Build the project.
Expected behavior
The build succeeds.
Actual behavior
The build fails due to the missing package.

The data source of my report contains grouping string values, among which are the '10000' and '1010Q'. These two values are always treated as the same string, and the corresponding records fall within the same report group, which is unexpected:
When the WinForms Report Viewer is initialized from within the Form.Load Event, and the RefreshReport() method of the viewer is invoked before it is added to a parent form, the following exception will be thrown:
Telerik.ReportViewer.WinForms.Licensing.UiLicensePresenter.ShowWatermark(Action showWatermarkCallback) at Telerik.ReportViewer.Common.TelerikLicensePresenterBase.PresentWatermark(Action showWatermarkCallback) at Telerik.ReportViewer.WinForms.WinViewer.OnPaint(PaintEventArgs eventArgs) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.PaintWithErrorHandling(PaintEventArgs e, Int16 layer) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.WmPaint(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.ControlNativeWindow.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.Callback(HWND hWnd, MessageId msg, WPARAM wparam, LPARAM lpa
I just recently updated to the latest reporting release 2025 Q1 in addition to updating to the newest Visual Studio Community 2022 (64-bit) - Current
Version 17.13.2
I installed the newest reporting update and updated my VS project.
I must have at least 50 different reports which I have previously designed and have been working fine. The DataSource is set to the object exposing all the key fields using gets. Works fine when running the program but after all the updates, all of a sudden I can see, in the designer, the fields in the fields list when editing an element value reference or in the the Data Explorer.
Played with a sample element in the detail panel. The form has the data source set correctly. The toolbox also shows the reporting tools. No go.
I verified the new reporting DLL is intact.
Same situation with all my reports. All work fine running, just the designer interface is not working.
I even tried on another computer, also updated, and experienced the same problem.
Again, now all my reports don't show the list - something intrinsically has changed. with the setup and recognition of the DS.

At the moment it's only possible to have your reports in old-fashioned projects.
It should be possible to add/design reports to SDK-style projects. That should work no matter what target framework is (.NET Core, .NET Standard or .NET Framework).
We use WPF Report Viewer in our application. For testing, validation, and automation purposes, we need to:
- Uniquely identify each element in the XAML rendered report contents to support automation.
- Prevent the element ID changes. The generated item IDs must remain consistent as long as the report definition is not changed.
we need to have complete End User Tutorial for Web Report Designer, where all the excel like features need to be demonstrated.
including Pivot etc.
I have updated to version 19.2.25.813 of Reporting, and when I try to build a project that has Reporting references, I get the following warnings:
Telerik and Kendo UI Licensing warning TKL102: Your current license has expired and is not valid for Telerik Document Processing Libraries version 2025.2.807.20.
There are no Telerik Document Processing dependencies in my project, but I still get the warning.
I am currently working on adapting our documents to meet EAA accessibility requirements, and I have upgraded Telerik Reporting to version 19.2.25.813.
I added { "EnableAccessibility", true } to the device information settings when exporting to PDF.
However, when I run the generated PDF through the PAC accessibility checker, it reports the following error:
One or more checks could not be completed. Please copy the error message and send it by email to pac@axes4.com so that we can improve the product.

The problem doesn't occur if I upgrade to an older Reporting version.
I am using the new Coded Reports feature in the Standalone Report Designer for .NET, and I have a class library with reports, that depends on another project.
When I try to load a report from the reports class library, I get an error that the dependent project's assembly cannot be loaded despite being present in the report folder's bin directory.
I try to select the Series Group for my LineSeries directly from the Graph Properties pane in the Standalone Report Designer, but the groups are not listed in the dropdown:
I am able to do this from the GraphSeries Collection Editor, though:
In print preview, if you have "FIT_PAGE_WIDTH" as a default scale mode, once you click the "toggle full page/full page width" button, it's never possible to get it to return the original fit-page-width size (it seems to cycle between 3 different zoom modes, but none of them fill the entire control width).
It looks like the report viewer correctly sets the scale mode during initialization. However, when toggling the mode later, it sets it incorrectly.
If we initialise the control in "FIT_PAGE_WIDTH" mode it essentially renders as expected but zooming in can actually then cause it to zoom *out*.
Reproducible in the `CSharp.NetFramework.Html5IntegrationDemo` example project as well, once you set the `scaleMode` property to "In FIT_PAGE_WIDTH".
When using the "Close"/"Close All" options when a report has unsaved modifcations, a warning is shown, but you are forced to save the report or close the window/tab to leave definition file unmodified.
A "close and discard changes" option is helpful and convenient - one can cancel some edits without hoping that a bunch of "Ctrl - Z" presses will clear everything, refer to one report without concern about accidental modifcations (can be editing others), etc.
The Web Report Designer does not entirely comply with CSP standards, necessitating the use of the 'unsafe-eval' directive in our CSP policies to enable its functionality.
This directive poses significant security risks and undermines the purpose of implementing CSP in the first place. Please remove this requirement.
In the standalone designer, it would be helpful if you could drag and drop the column headers to reorder. At present you have to add a new column and delete the old one, remembering to copy all properties.
