I have create a kendo grid with batch editing using https://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/grid/editing for reference (using your demo service as suggested for my controller: https://github.com/telerik/kendo-ui-demos-service/blob/master/demos-and-odata-v3/KendoCRUDService/Controllers/ProductsController.cs).
The grid will read the data fine, but when I go to create the controller is unable to deserialize the "models" passed to it (as detailed in the parameterMaps function). After reading through various Telerik threads, I have tried ensuring editing mode is set to "incell" and ensuring batch mode is set to true.
Do you know what I'm doing wrong that's stopping the data from binding?
Kendo grid
<div id="grid"></div> <script> $(document).ready(function () { var crudServiceBaseUrl = "/RegulationIndex", dataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({ batch: true, transport: { read: { url: crudServiceBaseUrl + "/GetRegulations", dataType: "json", type: "GET" }, update: { url: crudServiceBaseUrl + "/UpdateRegulations", dataType: "json", type: "PUT" }, destroy: { url: crudServiceBaseUrl + "/DeleteRegulations", dataType: "json", type: "DELETE" }, create: { url: crudServiceBaseUrl + "/AddRegulations", dataType: "json", type: "POST" }, parameterMap: function (options, operation) { if (operation !== "read" && options.models) { return { models: kendo.stringify(options.models) }; } } }, pageSize: 20, schema: { model: { id: "Id", fields: { Id: { editable: false }, LastReviewedDate: { editable: false }, LastReviewedBy: { editable: false } } } } }); $("#grid").kendoGrid({ dataSource: dataSource, navigatable: true, pageable: true, height: 550, toolbar: ["create", "save", "cancel"], columns: [ { field: "Continent", width: 120 }, { field: "Area", width: 120 }, { field: "Country", width: 120 }, { field: "Service", width: 120 }, { field: "B2BOrB2C", title: "Customer Type", width: 120 }, { field: "RegulationName", title: "Regulation Name", width: 120 }, { field: "LastReviewedDate", format: "{0:dd/MM/yyyy}", width: 100 }, { field: "LastReviewedBy", width: 100 }, { command: "destroy", title: " ", width: 150 }], editable: "incell" }); }); function customBoolEditor(container, options) { $('<input class="k-checkbox" type="checkbox" name="Discontinued" data-type="boolean" data-bind="checked:Discontinued">').appendTo(container); } </script>
Controller action
[HttpPost] [ProducesResponseType(StatusCodes.Status400BadRequest)] [ProducesResponseType(StatusCodes.Status404NotFound)] public async Task<IActionResult> AddRegulations() { var logMessage = new LogMessageFactory(this.GetType().Name, MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType) .LogMessage; try { var body = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<IEnumerable<RegulationViewModel>>("models"); var gridRegulations = new List<RegulationViewModel>(); if (body != null) { if (!ModelState.IsValid) { return BadRequest(ModelState); } else { foreach (var reg in body) { RecordUserDateForRecordChange(reg); var regulation = await _webApiClientSession.RegulationsWebApiClient.CreateRegulationAsync(reg); var regulationViewModel = _mapper.Map<Regulation, RegulationViewModel>(regulation); gridRegulations.Add(regulationViewModel); } _logger.LogDebug(logMessage); return Json(gridRegulations); } } else { _logger.LogDebug(logMessage + "Failed to " + ControllerContext.HttpContext.Request.Method); return BadRequest(); } } catch (Exception e) { _logger.LogError(e, logMessage); return NotFound(); } }
Is there a way to programmatically initiate the built in grid search functionality from outside the grid?
I am working on updating a couple of old sites from before kendo had built in search functionality. I built my own search function and added a text box outside of the grid for the user to search all of the columns. I would like to switch from my custom search code to the built in grid search, but i need to leave the search ui the same.
TIA,
Logan

Hi,
With PivotGrid is it possible to view the underlying data that makes up a calculated value. For example clicking on a cell and seeing all the rows that make up the calculated value for that cell.
Cheers,
{ field: "LastName", label: "LastName:", validation: { required: true, message: "test" }, hint: "Hint: enter alphanumeric characters only." },
The validation attribute message seems to be wrong
It should be validationMessage not message
Hi team,
As the question says, Im trying to define my template content as part of an html data attribute, see dojo: https://dojo.telerik.com/UxAPOXeV
But i get a syntax error when the widget is initialized.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Grant
Below is the kendo ui nested grid sample code and I highlighted the code which is the issue. Here I am trying to reference the nested grid inside a parent grid, but getting undefined exception. Not sure what I am doing wrong here.
var filterWorkOrderBundleDetails = function (DetailId) {
var control = $("#grid_" + DetailId).data("kendoGrid"); //(undefined): Not able to reference nested grid.
//Todo
return {
WorkOrderDetailId: DetailId
}
}

Hello,
I tried to add/edit data in dynamically added grids of a main grid. See code below. When I added a new record in sub grid, the selected row in parent grid was collapsed and the first row was expanded. You can see screen captures in attached pdf file.
