grid with inconsistent data

[Ishay]

Hi, 
i need to display a grid with dynamic data, i have no previous knowledge regarding my columns, 
additionally the objects\rows are not consistent, for example:

var users = [{"a":"1","c":"1"},

        {"a":"2","b":"2","c":"2"},

        {"a":"3","b":"3","c":"3"},

        {"a":"4","b":"4","c":"4","d":"4"}]

when passing this kind of data to a Kendo grid, it sometimes displays the common attributes and sometimes don't display anything.

is there a way to make it display null values for missing values?

sample - http://jsfiddle.net/76aZ7/20/

Thanks, 
Ishay

Hello Ishay,

I am afraid that this scenario, without no previous knowledge of the columns, is not supported. If you insist you may try to modify the raw data that is coming from the server and build an array of new objects (e.g. assign null values, etc) at the data function of the schema:

var dataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({
    data: users,
    schema: {
        data: function(data) {
            //data - raw data received from the Ajax request
            //do something with the data
            return dataArray;
        }
     }
})
