Align containers dynamically in Paginated Report

I am working on a power BI Paginated Report in Report builder:

I have got 2 Rectanges (containers). The main container is in yellow. It contains 3 textboxes, a table and the red container. then there is the red container (which is inside the yellow container) that contains an image and a textbox in purple.

I want the red container to be aligned with the yellow one. As you can see circled in the image below it is not aligned when I render it :

how can I make the red container the same height as the yellow one dynamically ? No matter whatever number of lines in my table ?

 

Thanks in advance

Apologies I do not have any data to hand to test this, but give this a go.

 

Essentially a master container to keep all items together, and the other containers within a 2 column table

I seem to recall a 'Can Grow' property being avaliable in Reporting Services also

I tried this but it says that a tablix must be linked to a dataset. The problem is I am using multiple datasets. So for example in your image i want to add another table in container 2 that has a different dataset than the master table that contains container 1 and 2. 

 

How can I achieve that ? What I want basically is juste a sidebar that grows vertically from the begining of the report to the end
