<introEmbed body={<> For readability, always use alternating row colors. </>} />

Use White and Gainsboro (a light shade of grey). Select the row, and enter this expression in the BackgroundColor property:

= iif(RowNumber(Nothing) Mod 2, "White", "Gainsboro")

✅ Figure: Good example - Alternating row colors greatly improve the readability of reports, and is very easy to do in Reporting Services
