Kendo Upload, how to pass file id instead of file name in removeUrl?

[Salim]

We’re using  the kendo upload
I Want to pass to the removeUrl the file id instead of file names
I changed the removeField property to uid but I’m always getting the file names
How can I do this ?

I tried to change the remove url on fly and add to it the file id but the upload Success event is fired before the upload server call is fired
And I have a business that needs to be done when file remove is succeeded

Please help me with this
Thank you

Hello Salim,


The name of the file to be removed will always be send to the server. In order to also pass the id, you should use the remove event handler and attach the id as additional data. This is demonstrated in the following example:

https://www.telerik.com/kendo-angular-ui/components/upload/credentials/#toc-attaching-additional-data-to-requests

The information for the file that is being removed is available in the RemoveEvent parameter of the event handler.

Thanks Dimiter but I need to ask one more question:
Why the success event is fired before the remove api is done ?
I have a business that needs to be done when file remove is succeeded where to implement this functionality

Hi Salim,


The success event is fired when the response from the server is received i.e. in the success handler of the request method of HttpClient.

https://angular.io/api/common/http/HttpClient#request

As a side note it is fired in both cases - after successful upload and successful remove operation. Maybe this is the reason for the confusion in the current case?

I was expecting the behavior you described. However,what is happening is that it is calling on the success event before waiting the response from the server

Hi Salim,

We have not met this issue before. Could you please double check this behavior in the "network" tab of the browsers developer tools - the remove request will be listed there, so you could assure if a response is returned? If the problem is still reproducing, please send us an example or plunkr that demonstrates it in action, so we could inspect it locally and assist further.

Hi Salim,


Thank you for the provided recording.  It does indeed demonstrate the behavior you are describing. If possible, please provide an isolated example so we could inspect and debug it locally in order to pinpoint the problem.

I am looking forward to hearing from you.

The case, Dimiter, is when the uploader is inside a grid

Hi Salim,


If further assistance is needed, please send us an example project or a plunkr to demonstrate the issue.

Can't you try to put an uploader inside a Grid?

[Dimiter Madjarov]

Hi Salim,


Please excuse me for not making this clear, we tried to reproduce the scenario locally with an Upload inside a Grid cell template, but to no avail. I don't think that this should influence the timing of the success event, but I could be missing something here.
