datasource update fail on return

[Morten]

I have a grid with editable: "inline" hooked on a datasource pointing to a asp.net mvc controller for its update: update: { url: '@Url.Action("Update", "Account")', contentType: "application/json", type: "POST" }.

I would like the Update method on the AccountController to return json ( public JsonResult Update(int id, string name() { ... return ​Json() } ), however if the Update method returns anything but a single digit I'm getting the client side error: "Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected number" and clicking the script reference gives me this code: (function(d,value /**/) { d.0=value })

What is wrong?

Hello Morten,

 

I'm not sure about the exact cause for the issue you are facing. However, you should verify that the object returned by the update action method have the same structure as the one declared in the DataSource schema - its format should match the response returned by the read method. The actual data should contain only the updated items. Additional information on how to setup the DataSource for CRUD operations can be found in this help topic.

If you continue experiencing difficulties please provide more details about the Grid's declaration as well as other associated code such as the server Controller.
