Filtering OData

[Eric Schoenholzer]

I'm using the inbuild function of the grid to do filtering via OData source.

When I try to filter a numeric value, I get this error from the odata service:

Operator 'eq' incompatible with operand types 'System.Int32' and 'System.String' at position 5.

Is there a way to configure the filter expression?

Thanks
Eric

Hello Eric,

I assume you haven't defined schema/model for the DataSource. Please check the following demo for more details:

Thanks, could be the problem.

Suggestion:
Why not implementing the $metadata operation for OData?

So you could infer the schema.

Thanks
