Kendo UI grid not populating the data

[Mathew]

I tried to bind a grid from the corresponding to the data entered in a textbox, but the grid is not populated
Also there is no error displayed
 This is the code i used

$("#txtSearchCaller").keyup(function () { SearchCaller($(this)); });

function SearchCaller(txtSearchCaller) {
            SearchRequestProcess = $.ajax({
            type: "GET",
            url: baseURL + "Call/SearchCaller",
            data: "term=" + $(txtSearchCaller).val(),
            contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
            dataType: "json",
            success: OnGetCallerSuccess,
            error: function (request, status, error) { if (request.statusText != "abort") { alert("SearchCaller:: " + request.statusText); } }
                });
    }
}
function OnGetCallerSuccess(Jsondata, status) {
    $("#Grid").kendoGrid({ // create Grid from div HTML element Kendo
        dataSource: Jsondata,
        selectable: "row",
        scrollable: true,
        navigatable: true,
        resizable: true,
        groupable: false,
        columns: [
                    {
                        field: "category1",
                        title: "category1",
                        width: 80
                    },
                    {
                        field: "category2",
                        title: "Customer Name",
                        width: 80
                    },
                ]
    });
}

Hello Mathew,

Your current approach will result in multiple initialization of the Grid widget which is not supported.
If you want to modify the Grid's data I recommend you to use the DataSource API methods such as data or filter.
The first one will let you to completely replace the existing data, while the second one will allow you to filter (search) specific records.

In other words, you can initialize the Grid with empty dataSource on document.ready and only change its data at the success event of the Ajax request.

In case this does not help. Please post a sample of the Json response that is received on the client so I can examine it and assist you further.
Thank you in advance.

Kind regards,
