Hello,
currently evaluating Telerik Reports. I try to use Telerik Reports hosted by the Telerik Reporting REST Services in an existing Web API project bound to the HTML5 viewer.
It works basically, but in my ObjectDataSource that is bound to the report I have to load data async from an existing backend service. The method gets triggered but the result is never awaited. All I get is the following error:
How do I load data asynchronous to bind them to the report? Possible at all?

An error has occurred while processing TextBox 'textBox1': The expression contains object 'Start' that is not defined in the current context.How do I load data asynchronous to bind them to the report? Possible at all?

Hello,
The data should be fully loaded once the report processing begins.
Our suggestion is to design the report and assign its Datasource property to the retrieved data. If needed, you can data bind the report at run-time after waiting all data records to be loaded. You can access the report's and inner data items' DataSource properties in a similar manner as in the Changing the connection string dynamically according to runtime data KB article.
