visual studio 2019 not show add new item Report rdlc

I installed Microsoft Reporting Services Projects VS2019 extention and ssdt based on this link on vs 2019 : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/ssdt/download-sql-server-data-tools-ssdt?view=sql-server-ver15

I have wpf core project in vs 2019 , but when I right click and select add new item , there is not Report item to select. How can we add .rdlc file to wpf core project?

Well.. after searching a lot, i installed Visual Studio 2015. create a winform project and added it to my Project in Visual Studio 2019

I can create datasets, rdlc report, just in this winform project, and then i add it to my wwwroot folder

My project, and the winform project at the bottom

I had the same exact problem. Here is a workaround: Create an xml file containing the following minimal content. Then change the extension of the file from MyReport.xml to MyReport.rdlc in order to have rdlc extension.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Report 
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/reporting/2008/01/reportdefinition" 
xmlns:rd="http://schemas.microsoft.com/SQLServer/reporting/reportdesigner">

<Width>6.5in</Width>
<Body>
 <Height>2in</Height>
</Body>
<rd:ReportTemplate>true</rd:ReportTemplate>
<Page>
</Page>
</Report>

I came to this solution, after installing all suggested tools/templates, still could not view the option/button to add a rdlc tool.

Using this technique you can now open/edit the file in the reportViewer Designer inside Visual Studio 2019

PS: This solution applies to .net 5 projects, and .net core 3.1 projects also, has chance to work on .net core 2.x project (didn't test this last).

You have to install this component separately after installing 2019.

Once VS2019 is installed.. go to Tools -> Get tools and Features. Search for Reporting Services and install it.

Then you can create new SSRS projects
