How can I get Microsoft Dynamics 365 to appear in the list of data sources when creating a report in Visual Studio 2017?

vs studio data source list

I have VS 15 installed but it started crashing after I installed BIDS.

I know VS 17 may not be compatible with BIDS but is there a workaround because I am unable to find download links for VS 13 or older.

I have the following tools installed:

SQL Server Data Tools

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/ssdt/download-sql-server-data-tools-ssdt

SQL Server Reporting Services

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/reporting-services/create-deploy-and-manage-mobile-and-paginated-reports

Microsoft Dynamics CRM Report Authoring Extension

Thanks

At the moment VS 2017 is not supported. Here is quote from Dynamics 365 Report Authoring extension software requirements:

Microsoft Visual Studio 2015, Microsoft Visual Studio 2013, Microsoft Visual Studio 2012, or Microsoft Visual Studio 2010.

So the only way out for you is to install VS 2015/2013/2012/2010. Good luck.
