No need to have the product key for an existing installation. Run the SQL Server installation media and select the "Add feature" option, see
Hi @derek chan
The options that pop up are the free editions of SSRS.
And if you want to install using a key, it is true that SSRS is part of the SQL Server package and does not require additional licensing if installed on the same server as the engine. But SQL Server product keys are specific to the version and edition they are targeted for. Therefore, a valid product key for SQL Server 2022 is required to install SSRS 2022.
