    Hi,

    You can bind the data in your view model to your report using the DataSources collection of the ClientRenderSettings. Check this document for sample code of how to bind a data sources through the viewer API.

    Essentially what you need to do is:

    (1) Create a report, define a data source (let’s call it ChartDS) and associate it to the chart you want to render.

    (2) In your App, add the XamReportViewer and configure it to render the report you have created

    (3) Configure the DataSources property to bind ChartDS to data in your view model. E.g.

     

    <ig:XamReportViewer>

      <ig:XamReportViewer.RenderSettings>

        <ig:ClientRenderSettings DefinitionUri="MyApp;component/Report.igr, MyApp" >                

          <ig:ClientRenderSettings.DataSources>                   

            <ig:DataSource TargetDataSource="ChartDS" ItemsSource="{Binding chartData}" />                  

          </ig:ClientRenderSettings.DataSources>            

        </ig:ClientRenderSettings>

    </ig:XamReportViewer>

     

    Assuming that “chartData” is a property in your view model.

    You can check these two documents (one and two) for how to work with Charts.

    Does this answer your question?

    Best,
