We are modernizing the Telerik Report Server for .NET Web API. The new v3 API is consistent, fully documented via an OpenAPI 3.1 specification with live Swagger UI, and accompanied by a typed .NET client SDK. All endpoints authenticate via Personal Access Tokens. The new API is the foundation for Report Server integrations going forward — including the Report Server MCP Server — and is designed to evolve without breaking changes.

 

 

Telerik Report Server now ships an MCP Server. Any AI coding assistant or AI agent that supports the Model Context Protocol — GitHub Copilot, Claude, Cursor, Codex, and others — can connect to your Report Server instance using a Personal Access Token, discover available reports, generate report documents on demand in any supported format (PDF, Excel, Word, CSV, and more), manage report assets, and trigger scheduled tasks. No custom API client code needed. Authenticate once with a token you create in the Report Server Manager; your AI assistant does the rest.

 

Telerik Reporting will introduce a GenAI-powered assistant in the Web Report Designer (WRD) to simplify the creation of data presentation items. This feature will allow users to describe their reporting needs in natural language and instantly generate styled, data-bound visualizations. Each proposed report change will be approved or rejected by the user, providing complete control over the result. The initial release will focus on Graph and Gauge items, powered by a set of Design-Time Tools that manipulate the report model and trigger commands in the design-time environment. Future expansions will be guided by the user feedback we collect.

All defined improvements to the Web Report Designer defined in the Telerik Reporting Roadmap will also be available to the Report Server users so that they get more productivity and flexibility when implementing their report definitions.

All the reporting engine improvements defined on Telerik Reporting Roadmap will also be available in the Report Server.

After introducing Raw Data export feature to the Standalone Report Designer tool, we will match this functionality in the Web Report Designer. The feature enhances working with data while designing and previewing reports. Report creators will access unified raw data export during design time through the data source wizards and on demand. When previewing the report document, the users will have access to the plain data behind each data item like Table, Chart, or the Report itself for export.

We will enhance the Scheduled reports' delivery allowing to send the reports in one common email to all subscribers.
