certainly! sql server reporting services (ssrs) allows you to create dynamic and interactive reports, and one of the key features that enhances user experience is the use of report parameters. this tutorial will guide you through creating report parameters in ssrs, along with a code example.

what are report parameters?

report parameters are used in ssrs to filter data, control report behavior, or allow user input. they can be used in queries, expressions, and to control visibility for report items.

steps to create report parameters in ssrs

step 1: create a new report

1. open sql server data tools (ssdt) or visual studio.
2. create a new project or open an existing one.
3. right-click the reports folder, select **add**, and then **new item**.
4. choose **report** and give it a name.

step 2: define the data source

1. right-click on the **data sources** in the report data pane.
2. select **add data source**.
3. name your data source and configure the connection to your database.

step 3: create a dataset

1. right-click on **datasets** in the report data pane and select **add dataset**.
2. choose the data source you created in the previous step.
3. write your sql query. for instance, if you want to filter data by a specific product category, you might start with a query like:



here, `@category` will be our parameter.

step 4: add a report parameter

1. in the report data pane, right-click on **parameters** and select **add parameter**.
2. fill in the following properties:
- **name**: set the name (e.g., `category`).
- **data type**: choose the appropriate data type (e.g., text).
- **prompt**: enter a user-friendly prompt (e.g., "select a category").
- **available values**: you can choose to allow all values or specify available values from a dataset. for example, to pull distinct categories from your products table, you might create a dataset:



then set the available values to be from this dataset.

3. click **ok**.
