Setting connection string at runtime in trdf

[Randy Hompesch]

Hi,

I accidentally posted this to the main report forum. Sorry for the duplicate. Anyhow … 

I am using asp.net core and we have dev and production environments set up on different machines.
How can I pass a connection string that is appropriate for the given environment to the .trdf report? I've tried everything I can think of.
There was a long winded article with what seemed to be a very complicated way of doing something that should be simple.
(https://www.telerik.com/support/kb/reporting/details/changing-the-connection-string-dynamically-according-to-runtime-data).
All I want is to read the appsettings.json file, pull the correct connection string from there and pass it to the .trdf at runtime.
My kingdom for a simple example!
Thanks ... Ed
