Use SqlDataSource SelectCommand xml element instead xml attribute - it allows to write complex sql requests in any tool and just put it into xml without changes and have it well-formatted and readable:

So, instead of

save it as

or even

WebReportDesigner (Blazor) - permission to restrict "Build new data connections" and allow to use only "Select from existing data connections".

It isn't required, but would be nice have button "Test connection" in the bottom enabled to verify predefined connection

When I drag a data field from a DataSource component to the Report details section in the Standalone Report Designer, the Report > DataSource property is set automatically to the corresponding DataSource component.

In the Web Report Designer, when I drag a data field, the Report > DataSource property remains empty, and the Preview shows an empty report. It would be very helpful the same functionality to be introduced also in the Web Designer.

I have projects on .NET Core and I want to use the System.Text.Json serializer that is the new default, but reporting relies on Newtonsoft.Json.

ADMIN EDIT

There are two approaches that can be taken right now to solve this:

OPTION 1: define separate endpoints (services, projects) for the different tasks - they can still use the same database layer through a shared project, depending on the architecture you have. This would let you have separated services with the appropriate serializers without custom attributes and code (see below). For example, create a separate project for the reporting REST services.

OPTION 2: add some custom decoration on the endpoints so you can choose which serializer is used on each, you can find some examples here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/59650907/how-to-configure-two-json-serializers-and-select-the-correct-one-based-on-the-ro - the point being to register a serializer depending on the endpoint based on your own code rather than let the framework put one in for all endpoints.

NOTE: This would be a breaking change.

Currently, the WinForm report viewer fetches configuration (specifically the connection string for any named connection strings defined in reports) directly from appsettings.json, however, it would be useful if the report viewer could take into account an injected IConfiguration since there are scenarios where the configuration may not exist in appsettings.json or a preferred or more up to date user selected value has been added to the configuration from a different source (such as a userSettings.json or secrets.json).

Some background of my use case:

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).

Currently, the only way to set ObjectDataSource parameters as nullable is by typing this manually in the `DataType` property as follows:

Consider allowing to do this through the "Edit Parameters" dialog:

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’m using Telerik.Reporting v19.1.25.521 to generate PDF files. After upgrading the Telerik.Licensing NuGet package to version 1.6.16, all SVG files stopped rendering in the output.

Reverting back to the previous version resolves the issue. I also tested the latest available version (1.6.21), but the problem still persists.

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.

We'd like to have a settable property on the web designer and report viewer which takes a function which returns an access token.
This way a new access token can be requested by the designer/viewer when the current one expires.

This is usually used in the following way:

1. Implement a function with signature "string GetAccessToken()"
2. Set that function to the property AccessTokenProvider of the designer/viewer
3. Designer/Viewer wants to make a request and fetches and caches the access token
4. Designer/Viewer uses that access token until it hits a 401 upon which
   1. The Cached access token is cleared
   2. A new Access token is fetched from AccessTokenProvider and then cached
   3. Retry the request with the new access token
   4. Should the retry also fail return the failure

Should the above be to specific/inflexible:
Instead of caching the access token, call AccessTokenProvider for every fetch but also provide an additional parameter with the "reason" for the call, so the implementer of AccessTokenProvider can decide themselves when to return a cached AccessToken or generate a new one.

Hi Team,

Currently, the DatabaseCacheConfigurator.exe tool seems to be Windows-only. Can you please compile this to be cross platform compatible? I am on macOS and cannot use any Windows tooling.

Thank you,

Hi Team,

I have a request for being able to add the `User-Agent` header to reporting calls. We've ran into some image hosting sites that will not resolve image links properly if the user-agent is not present in the request and returns a 403 Forbidden error. Any browser that passes the user-agent parameter can resolve this link.

But telerik will return this error:

Telerik.ReportDesigner.exe Error: 0 : An exception has occurred while processing 'pictureBox1' item:
System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden.
   at System.Net.WebClient.DownloadDataInternal(Uri address, WebRequest& request)

   at Telerik.Reporting.Processing.PictureBox.ResolveImage(Object value)
   at Telerik.Reporting.Processing.ReportItemBase.ProcessElement()
   at Telerik.Reporting.Processing.ProcessingElement.Process(IDataMember dataContext)

Currently, the only way around this is to fetch the images with a custom user function and returns the images to the Reporting Engine as a byte array or other supported format. It's a lot of overhead for something that could simply be toggled on an off, so I think this would be a nice feature addition. 

Thanks,
J.T.
