Report Datasources

Hello,
I am trying to use the report viewer with parameters and had a bit of a snag, I tried to reproduce your own example but I get an error message: "Error    CS1503    Argument 1: cannot convert from 'Syncfusion.Reporting.Models.ReportViewer.ReportDataSource' to 'Syncfusion.Reporting.Web.ReportDataSource'"
Pls find atached the code from my webapi controller, is it a problem with the report version? I am using latest Reporting nuget packages V 4.1.025. without using parameters, I've gotten the report to work fine. Note my only objective is to use parameters that are hidden and passed to the report at runtime I was thinking a simple solution maybe using session variables? Thanks in advance

Hi Yoab, 

Thanks for your interest in Syncfusion products. 

We have validated your shared snap and the issue occurs due to the namespace mismatch. Since you are using latest ReportPlatform nuget then we suggest you to use “Syncfusion.Reporting.Web.ReportDataSource” namespace to resolve this issue in your sample application. 

Regards, 
Vinoth S.
