cannot filter from code

[n/a]

Hi,

I am trying to filter items from code and get this error:

cannot implicity convert type 'system.collections.generic.list<telerik.datasource.filterdescritptorbase>' to 'system.collections.generic.icollection<telerik.datasource.ifilterdescriptor>'>

Please see code below:

private async Task FilterByNameAndWritter()
        {
            List<FilterDescriptorBase> filterDescriptorBases = new List<FilterDescriptorBase>();
            filterDescriptorBases.Add(new FilterDescriptor() { Member = "Name", Operator = FilterOperator.Contains, Value = Name,    MemberType = typeof(string) });
            filterDescriptorBases.Add(new FilterDescriptor() { Member = "Writter", Operator = FilterOperator.Contains, Value = Writter, MemberType = typeof(string) });

            GridState<BookDto> gridState = new GridState<BookDto>();
            gridState.FilterDescriptors = filterDescriptorBases;  // the error comes from here

            await BookGrid.SetState(gridState);
        }

[n/a]

any help would be appreciated. Thank you

Hello,

I recommend you start from the samples in the documentation for filtering the grid from code:

• for filter menu: https://docs.telerik.com/blazor-ui/components/grid/filter/filter-menu#filter-from-code
• for filter row: https://docs.telerik.com/blazor-ui/components/grid/filter/filter-row#filter-from-code

and if following the same pattern and using the same classes does not help you move forward,  I recommend opening a support ticket with a relevant, runnable sample that shows the issue.
