Report Builder Parameters - MySQL

I have a MySQL query which includes a parameter, AND voi.fund_id IN (@fund_id).  After validating the query, my parameter, fund_id, appears in the report data parameter pane and if I right-click on my dataset, then select parameters, I can see that my parameter is mapped to a field in the parameter value section.  When I run the report and enter a parameter when prompted, no data is returned.  If I run my query in MySQL, I can see that the parameter value I provided is present for certain records, yet no records are returned when I run the report within the Report Builder application.  Why doesn't this work?

Hi, @jrieman ;

This weird issue is due to the fact that SSRS is connected to MySQL by ODBC connector; therefore, the query parameters should be defined as ? and their names are Parameter1Parameter2, etc... in order of appearance
