Hello everyone,
Here are the highlights of the new online resources we published this week from 29 Oct 2025 to 05 Nov 2025:
Article: https://docs.telerik.com/reporting/interactivity/ai-powered-insights-overview
Summary: AI-powered Insights in Telerik Reporting lets users query and get natural-language summaries of the data currently rendered in a report directly inside the web report viewer. To enable it, configure an LLM provider in your Reporting REST service (OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, or another OpenAI-compatible endpoint), enable the AI Insights UI in the viewer, and optionally customize the system prompt, allowed models, data scope, and token/request limits. You control what report data is sent to the LLM and can restrict PII and usage to meet security and compliance requirements.
Article: https://docs.telerik.com/reporting/interactivity/built-in-client-integration-ai-insights
Summary: Use the AI Insights panel in Telerik Reporting viewers to let users ask questions and generate summaries for the current report via OpenAI or Azure OpenAI, with all LLM requests routed through the Telerik Reporting REST Service. You enable it per viewer (HTML5/MVC/Angular/React/Blazor) and configure the server with the provider, API key, and model/deployment; you can customize prompts, control what report content is sent to the model, and secure access with authentication and CORS.
Article: https://docs.telerik.com/reporting/knowledge-base/combobox-parameter-editor-virtualization
Summary: Learn how to enable virtualization for the ComboBox parameter editor in Telerik Reporting’s HTML5/Web Report Viewer to handle large parameter value lists. You’ll register a custom parameter editor that wraps a Kendo UI ComboBox with virtualization, remote data (server paging/filtering), and a valueMapper so selected values are resolved and preselected correctly. Use this pattern when a report parameter exposes thousands of available values to reduce initial load, memory usage, and network payload.
Article: https://docs.telerik.com/reporting/interactivity/custom-client-integration-ai-insights
Summary: Implement AI insights in Telerik Reporting by adding a custom interactive action to report items and handling it in the HTML5 Report Viewer. You pass the relevant report context (fields/parameters) to the client, call a server endpoint that proxies OpenAI/Azure OpenAI, and render the response in the viewer while keeping API keys and validation on the server.
Article: https://docs.telerik.com/reporting/interactivity/customizing-ai-powered-insights
Summary: Configure AI-powered insights in Telerik Reporting by defining system and user prompt templates, selecting the report/data scope included in the prompt, and wiring providers such as OpenAI or Azure OpenAI with model, temperature, and token settings. The article shows how to enable the feature in the Report Viewer/REST service, restrict and transform the data that leaves your app, and handle request/response events to validate, redact, log, or cancel AI calls.
Article: https://docs.telerik.com/reporting/licensing/license-troubleshoot
Summary: This article helps you troubleshoot Telerik Reporting licensing issues such as trial watermarks, “Invalid license” errors, and CI/build server failures. You’ll verify that your project references commercial (non-trial) assemblies with matching versions, clean bin/obj, and for .NET Framework ensure a valid Embedded Resource license.licx and LC.exe on build agents; for .NET (Core/5+), remove license.licx and rebuild. It also covers upgrades and removing stale GAC or trial assembly references that trigger trial behavior.
Article: https://docs.telerik.com/reporting/knowledge-base/removing-save-as-option-report-designer
Summary: Learn how to remove or disable the Save As command in Telerik Reporting’s Web Report Designer: hide the Save As button in the client configuration and enforce the restriction server-side by rejecting create operations in your custom report storage/service. Use this to prevent users from cloning reports and allow only in-place Save to the existing item.
Article: https://docs.telerik.com/reporting/knowledge-base/rotate-images-picturebox-telerik-reporting
Summary: Learn how to rotate images in a Telerik Reporting PictureBox when rotation isn’t supported natively. You’ll add a C# user function that uses System.Drawing to rotate a byte[]/Image by a given angle, then call it from the PictureBox.Value expression (e.g., with a report parameter for the angle) and adjust Sizing to fit. The article covers handling image formats/transparency and returning the rotated bitmap for all renderers.
Article: https://docs.telerik.com/reporting/embedding-reports/display-reports-in-applications/web-application/html5-report-viewer/using-in-razor-pages-app
Summary: Learn how to add the Telerik Reporting HTML5 Report Viewer to an ASP.NET Core Razor Pages app by hosting the Reporting REST service and wiring up the client viewer. You will install the Telerik.Reporting and Telerik.Reporting.Services.AspNetCore NuGet packages, configure ReportServiceConfiguration and a ReportsController derived from ReportsControllerBase via dependency injection and routing in Program.cs, then include the required jQuery/Kendo and viewer scripts/styles in a .cshtml page and initialize the viewer with a serviceUrl and reportSource. The article also covers resolving reports from a folder (UriReportSourceResolver) and using file-based storage.
