Take a Walk on the Client Side with WebAPI and WebForms – Part 2

It has been more than a year since the last time we discussed WebAPI with WebForms, and a lot has changed in that time. Microsoft has released a 1.0 release of WebAPI and Telerik now supports using WebAPI as a client-side datasource for many of our controls. In this article, I will show you how to configure WebAPI to work with one of Telerik’s most popular controls, our Grid for ASP.NET AJAX. Without changing the appearance of the grid, I will convert the grid from server-side databinding to client-side databinding and show you how it supports sorting, filtering and paging with WebAPI.
