Error when exporting to Word or PDF from previewed report

Hi, I am encountering a new issue with the SfReportViewer control.  A new report we are developing previews fine in the report viewer.

When we attempt to export to PDF, we receive the message "Report failed to export."  However the PDF document is still created and looks correct.

When we attempt to export to Word, we also receive the message "Report failed to export".  In this case the Word document is also created, but is completely blank.

By comparison when we preview the report directly on the SSRS report server, we are able to export fine in both formats without any error messages.

We are using Synfusion UWP controls, version 15.3.0.26,

Please let me know is this is a known issue, or if I need to provide additional details.

Hi Ryan, 

Thanks for your interest in Syncfusion Components. 

We were able to export the SSRS report as PDF and Word document successfully without any exception. We have prepared a sample based on this and it can be downloaded from the below location. 


Could you please ensure that your webapi application compiled with same version that is used in local reportviewer application?  If you still face any issue then could you please modify the above sample to reproduce the reported issue at our end. It will be helpful for us to provide the solution at the earliest. 

Regards, 
Vinoth S.
