DropDownList's datasource is undefined

[kva]

I need to find refresh values of DropDownList programmatically. That's what I tried:

		    let nameDropDownList = $('#Configs').getKendoDropDownList();
			console.log(nameDropDownList);
			console.log(nameDropDownList.datasource);
		    nameDropDownList.datasource.read();	
            nameDropDownList.value(currentConfigName);

When read is called, I get:

Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'read')

Log shows me, that datasource is undefined.

DropDownList definition:

            @(Html.Kendo().DropDownList()
                .Name("Configs")
                .DataTextField("Name")
                .DataValueField("Name")
                .Filter(FilterType.StartsWith)
                .DataSource(s =>
                {
                    s.Read(r => r.Action("Read", "FilteringTable"));
                }))

Read method simply returns all entities of type FilteringTable.

It should be `dataSource` not `datasource`. There are mistakes in documentation.
