Grid Destroy Function Not Working

[Stéphane]

Hello, 

I can't get the Destroy method to work, I often get a 415 error with the GetListUsersDto object as parameters. 

@(Html.Kendo().Grid<GetListUsersDto>().Name("GetListUsersGrid")
        .Groupable()
        .Sortable()
        .Editable()
        .Scrollable()
        .ToolBar(x => x.Create())
        .Columns(columns =>
        {
            columns.Bound(c => c.ID).Title(@Localizer["Tab_User_Id"].Value);
            columns.Bound(c => c.Surname).Title(@Localizer["Editing_User_Surname"].Value);
            columns.Bound(c => c.Firstname).Title(@Localizer["Editing_User_Firstname"].Value);
            columns.Bound(c => c.RoleName).Title(@Localizer["Editing_User_Role"].Value);
            columns.Bound(c => c.DateDebActif).Title(@Localizer["Editing_User_Start_Date"].Value).Format("{0:M/d/yyyy HH:mm:ss}"); ;
            columns.Bound(c => c.DateFinActif).Title(@Localizer["Editing_User_End_Date"].Value).Format("{0:M/d/yyyy HH:mm:ss}"); ;
            columns.Command(c =>
            {
                c.Edit();
                c.Destroy();
            });
        }).DataSource(dataSource => dataSource.Ajax()
        .Read(r => r.Action("getusers", "admin"))
        .Create(r => r.Action("createuser", "admin"))
        .Destroy(r => r.Action("deleteuser", "admin"))
            .Model(model =>
            {
        model.Id(m => m.ID);
        model.Field(f => f.ID).DefaultValue(Guid.NewGuid());
    }
    )).Pageable())

    [HttpPost]
    [Authorize(PolicyEnum.Administrateur)]
    [Route("deleteuser")]
    public string DeleteUser([DataSourceRequest] DataSourceRequest request, GetListUsersDto dto)
    {
        //var result = adminService.DeleteUser(dto.ID);
        return JsonConvert.SerializeObject(new {/* error = result.IsError, message = localizer[result.IdMessage].Value + result.Message */});
    }

public class GetListUsersDto
{
    public Guid ID { get; set; }
    public string Surname { get; set; }
    public string Firstname { get; set; }
    public string Username { get; set; }
    public bool IsActif { get; set; }
    public int RoleId { get; set; }
    public string RoleName { get; set; }
    public int LangId { get; set; }
    public string LangName { get; set; }
    public DateTime DateDebActif { get; set; }
    public DateTime DateFinActif { get; set; }
}

If I change my GetListUsersDto method to Guid ID, the method works but the Guid is empty.

 [HttpPost]
 [Authorize(PolicyEnum.Administrateur)]
 [Route("deleteuser")]
 public string DeleteUser([DataSourceRequest] DataSourceRequest request, Guid Id)
 {
     //var result = adminService.DeleteUser(Guid.Parse(ID));
     return JsonConvert.SerializeObject(new {/* error = result.IsError, message = localizer[result.IdMessage].Value + result.Message */});
 }

If I only set a DataSourceRequest request, the method works, but doesn't return a usable object for my service.

    [HttpPost]
    [Authorize(PolicyEnum.Administrateur)]
    [Route("deleteuser")]
    public string DeleteUser([DataSourceRequest] DataSourceRequest request)
    {
        //var result = adminService.DeleteUser();
        return JsonConvert.SerializeObject(new {/* error = result.IsError, message = localizer[result.IdMessage].Value + result.Message */});
    }

I don't know what to do. Does anyone have a solution or idea?

Thank you,

Hello Stéphane,

When using a Grid with an Ajax DataSource the Destroy operation will send the entire object to the endpoint, not just the ID, defined in the schema. You can verify this by checking the InLine Editing Demo of the Grid and inspecting the Network tab - on pressing Delete a POST request is fired and the entire dataItem is submitted.

I can therefore suggest updating the endpoint to expect the entire GetListUsersDto, for example:

 [HttpPost]
 [Authorize(PolicyEnum.Administrateur)]
 [Route("deleteuser")]
 public string DeleteUser([DataSourceRequest] DataSourceRequest request, GetListUsersDto model)
 {
     ....
 }

Let me know if this helps resolve the issue.
