How to add export format as a user-selected parameter in Report Builder

For paginated reports, I know you can add the URL filter ?rdl:format=PDF to automatically export the report to a PDF once it's run. Is there any way to create a parameter with available values such as "PDF", "CSV", "XLSX" so that the user can select what type of file is going to be automatically exported? Thanks in advance for any help on this!

You cannot add a parameter like this in Report Builder. But the option of which format you want to export to is built in to the export option in the UI. When they click the export option they have to pick a file type.
