You can also access data quickly from the tables dropdown by selecting <Select table>.AWHERE
clause,LIMIT
keyword will be performed on the client side, meaning that thewhole result set will be retrieved from the Amazon Selling Partner (SP-API) API first, and only then the filtering will be applied to the data.

- Open Visual Studio and create a new SSRS project
-
Then add a new Shared Data Source (you can create a non-shared data source inside report too):
-
Continue with creating the Shared Data Source. Select Microsoft SQL Server as Type and hit Build button to proceed further:
-
Once a window opens, configure it similarly. Configure "AmazonSellingPartnerSpApiDSN" as database name. Finally, hit Test Connection and OK:

Another window opens, and it should look similarly to this one below which ends the creation of a Data Source:
DataSource=localhost,5000;Initial Catalog=AmazonSellingPartnerSpApiDSN -
Now it's time to create a Dataset. If you don't have a report created, in one of the wizard's steps it will look like this:
SELECT * FROM Orders --WHERE AmazonOrderId='902-1845936-5435065' WITH( CreatedAfter='1900-01-01T00:00:00' -- , CreatedBefore='1900-01-01T00:00:00' -- , LastUpdatedAfter='1900-01-01T00:00:00' -- , LastUpdatedBefore='1900-01-01T00:00:00' -- , OrderStatuses='Pending~Unshipped~PartiallyShipped~PendingAvailability~Shipped~Canceled~Unfulfillable' -- , MarketplaceIds='ATVPDKIKX0DER~A2Q3Y263D00KWC~A2EUQ1WTGCTBG2' -- , FulfillmentChannels='AFN~MFN' -- , PaymentMethods='COD~CVS~Other' -- , AmazonOrderIds='1111111,222222,333333' ) --CONNECTION( -- ServiceUrl='https://sellingpartnerapi-na.amazon.com' --) -
