    Hi @MiKhel Navarra,

    Currently asp.net core does not natively support RDLC reports.

    However, this feature can be implemented in asp.net Core through third-party packages, please note that third-party packages are not officially supported by Microsoft.

    Here is the test steps, hope it can help you. （Linux is not support）

    1.You can check the steps in this answer first.

    2.And I also try to add a DataTable in the report. Here is the sample code

            [HttpGet("print2")]
        public IActionResult Print2()
        {
            string mimetype = "";
            int extension = 1;
            var path = $"{this._webHostEnvironment.WebRootPath}\\Reports\\Report2.rdlc";

            Dictionary<String, string> parmeter = new Dictionary<String, string>();
            parmeter.Add("ReportParameter1", "RDLC in Blazor Web Application.");

            DataTable dataTable = new DataTable();
            dataTable.Columns.Add("Id", typeof(int));
            dataTable.Columns.Add("StartAirport", typeof(string));
            dataTable.Columns.Add("EndAirport", typeof(string));
            dataTable.Columns.Add("DepartureDate", typeof(DateTime));
            dataTable.Columns.Add("ArrivalDate", typeof(DateTime));
            dataTable.Columns.Add("ClassSeat", typeof(string));


            DataRow row1 = dataTable.NewRow();
            row1["Id"] = 1;
            row1["StartAirport"] = "JFK International Airport";
            row1["EndAirport"] = "LAX International Airport";
            row1["DepartureDate"] = new DateTime(2022, 6, 1);
            row1["ArrivalDate"] = new DateTime(2022, 6, 2);
            row1["ClassSeat"] = "Economy Class";
            dataTable.Rows.Add(row1);

            DataRow row2 = dataTable.NewRow();
            row2["Id"] = 2;
            row2["StartAirport"] = "LAX International Airport";
            row2["EndAirport"] = "JFK International Airport";
            row2["DepartureDate"] = new DateTime(2022, 6, 3);
            row2["ArrivalDate"] = new DateTime(2022, 6, 4);
            row2["ClassSeat"] = "Business Class";
            dataTable.Rows.Add(row2);

            DataRow row3 = dataTable.NewRow();
            row3["Id"] = 3;
            row3["StartAirport"] = "JFK International Airport";
            row3["EndAirport"] = "SFO International Airport";
            row3["DepartureDate"] = new DateTime(2022, 6, 5);
            row3["ArrivalDate"] = new DateTime(2022, 6, 6);
            row3["ClassSeat"] = "First Class";
            dataTable.Rows.Add(row3);

          

            LocalReport localreport = new LocalReport(path);
            localreport.AddDataSource("dstickets", dataTable);
            var restul = localreport.Execute(RenderType.Pdf, extension, parmeter, mimetype);
            return File(restul.MainStream, "application/pdf");
        }

    3.Note that the data source options in the data table in the .rdlc file must not be added manually. Otherwise, an exception will occur when the data is rendered.
