Thanks for reporting this. Can you go to Tools... Options... BIDS Helper... Version. Can you screenshot and upload here? If it suggests you upgrade anything can you look into that?
Once I get a confirmation you are on the latest SSDT extension versions I can debug this better.
Below is the screenshot of BIDS Helper Version tab
If I follow the issue report, initially you didn't have the SSRS extension installed but now you do. I don't suspect that makes a difference but I'll ask anyway. Did that resolve the issue?
I checked - at the report and screenshot time SSRS extension was installed but disabled. Now I re-enabled it and tested the issue with the same result; the issue persists.
If you install the latest version (2.3.3) it should fix this issue. Please allow the extension to auto-update or install manually and let me know if the problem isn't resolved now. Thanks for reporting and thanks for your patience.
Open new or existing SSIS Package from SSIS Project, switch to Parameters tab. Observing the following exception error message:
