JSON results

[Gabriel]

I have an autocomplete connecting to a WCF web serivce that returns data a JSON string.

Here is how I create the autocomplete:

var search = $("#searchBox").kendoAutoComplete({

            minLength: 3,

            separator: ", ",

            dataSource: {

                type: "json",

                transport: {

                    read: "../getTitles",

                    parameterMap: function() {

                        return { sku: $("#searchBox").data("kendoAutoComplete").value() };

                    }

                }

            }

        });

The data returned is a JSON string as follows:

["Test", "Test 2", "Test 3"]

Nothing actually shows inside the autocomplete box... Am I missing something...

Hello,

Are you sure this is the result returned by the WCF service? They normally return something like this:

{
      d : <actual result>
}

You need to tell the DataSource what the schema of the data is:

dataSource: {
  schema: {
      data: "d"
  },
  /* rest of configuration */
}
