While putting together my first app, I am loading a grid via javascript, populating the grid with Json data only after a number of other inputs are gathered from the user. While doing this, I omitted the .Read method on the datasource.  I was noticing http 400 errors everytime this page loaded.  Initially thought I was having issues with the Forgerytoken, but after trial-and-error, comparing to another sample page, I decided to stub in a .Read method and handler in the controller, and the http 400 errors stopped.  So I suppose my question is this - is a .Read method required, even if it will never be used?

See attached files, that show both screenshots of network traffic from the chrome debugger console.  Notice the last request in the stack in each case.

In this dojo I want to have a button to select the next and previous tabs(wizard navigation). The buttons work if the user clicks them slowly.

If the next button is clicked say 5 times rapidly, the tabstrip will only select up until the 2nd or 3rd tab instead of going all the way to the end.

I am using the asp.net core version of kendo but the jquery version is easier to show in the dojo and represents my problem.

Is there a way outside of disabling the button/debouncing/ or timeouts to get the tabstrip to queue any selects and use the final?

I insert a image to the sheet, and transform sheet to datauri format. I get a error message.

function SaveElnFile(e) {
        var spreadSheet = GetSpreadsheet("ElnMain");
        var sheet = spreadSheet.activeSheet();
        spreadSheet.bind("excelExport", function (e) {
            var fileName = "ElnTemplate/" + GetDateTimeString() + ".xlsx";
            e.workbook.fileName = fileName;
            var workbook = new kendo.ooxml.Workbook({
                sheets: e.workbook.sheets
            });

            workbook.toDataURLAsync().then(function (dataURL) {
                xxxxxx....
            });
                e.preventDefault();
        });
        spreadSheet.saveAsExcel();
    }

I don't think I'm alone in saying that it would be nice to see better docs, maybe even an entire separate section for this library that was Raorpages-specific.  

Would be nice to see such things as:
- Client template examples
- Different ways of loading & customizing the grid
- Common problems and their solutions

I recently upgraded my project to ASP NET Core 3.2 and now my grids are returning undefined.  I've found a couple threads about this, but nothing that has worked for me so far.  I have an enumerable defined object that I'm creating in my AJAX LoadData method to load my data and returning.  What am I doing wrong?

Have a razorpages app started and several areas of a view have various dropdowns etc that gather a users selections.  These selections are then used as inputs to grab data for a grid.  Ok, easy enough, my example is working so far.  However, so far I have only got to the point of LOADING my grid, now I need to handle updates/deletes etc.

Im looking over the examples, both frm the kendo project template and from this github project
https://github.com/telerik/ui-for-aspnet-core-examples/blob/master/Kendo.Examples.RazorPages/Kendo.Examples.RazorPages/Pages/Grid/GridCrudOperations.cshtml

Ok, some general questions and observations:

(1) These examples assume that criteria for getting the grid data is known at execution time.  In my case I need to gather several inputs before fetching the data for the grid.  Im doing this now, then loading the grid with json and javascript and it works.  However, now I need to handle updating/deleting etc
(2) What is the purpose of the .Data methods on the Datasource crud methods eg. and where is this Data method in the docs as used here?

(3) If I want to handle "batch" editing, AND I load the Dataset via JSON with javascript, how then does the .Read and other datasource method(s) need to change?
eg.  this example ,
https://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-core/grid/editing

so to load the product grid then

In this example

https://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-core/grid/editing

How could one show a image button instead of a command type button for the delete function?

Also, similar to the last question - will this example work with partial page updates?  In other words will the updating of the grid cause the entire view its contained within to be refreshed?

I want to export the current sheet to xlsx and send it to the server. I use excel proxy to send the file to server. but when the server side process done. the ui will auto refresh. I want to receive the return value and not refresh the UI, how can I do this, please help.

server side code:

[HttpPost]
        public ActionResult Post()
        {
            try
            {
                var data = Request.Form;
                var file = data["base64"][0];
                var fileName = data["fileName"][0];
                var contentType = data["contentType"][0];
                byte[] buffer = Convert.FromBase64String(file);
                string filePath = FileHelper.MapPath("/wwwroot/UserUpload/" + fileName);
                FileStream fs = new FileStream(filePath, FileMode.CreateNew);
                fs.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
                fs.Close();
                return new JsonResult("OK");
            }
            catch (Exception e)
            {
                return new JsonResult("Fail");
            }
        }
