HI

Everyone always ask how to delete the record,
But my question is : 

How to get the destroyed data items from the Grid's dataSource ?
Is there have any official/public method or property ? 

Best regards

Hello Chris,

By default the deleted items would be returned back to the client so the Grid is updated correctly. If you would like to retrieve the items there I would suggest handling the requestEnd event for the DataSource. Then check the type of the request and if it is "delete" get the items from the e.response argument.

The relevant logic would look similar to the following:

function onRequestEnd(e) {
    if (e.type == "destroy") {
        var deletedItems = e.response;
    }
}

Let me know how this approach works for you.

Thanks for your response but I want to get the destroyed data items from the Grid's dataSource just simple Button click event (without any data request).

Best regards

Hello, Chris,

My name is Alex and I am filling in for my colleague Viktor while he is away.

It is possible to get the destroyed dataItems without making a request by using the internal dataSource method destroyed():

var destroyedDataItems = grid.dataSource.destroyed();

Here is a runnable example for your convenience:

As always, be cautious about using methods/properties which are not part of the public API as these are subject to change.
