  We’re using the C1FlexReportDesigner v2018.2

  Is it possible to use JSON files as a data source to build a template?

  I figured out so far that one can use a specific JSON OLEDB/ODBC driver (e.g. Zappysys https://zappysys.com/products/odbc-powerpack/ ). But is there a more native way to do this like it is possible for XML files?

  Thanks!

  Hello,

  There is no direct way to use JSON files as data source to FlexReport. They must be used indirectly through other data providers only.

  Thanks and Regards,
