Modify filter before sent to server

[Ed]

When the user filters the data​Source, I would like to modify that filter before it gets sent to the server. Where and how can I do this? I am guessing the data event handler function is an appropriate place, but I tried that and it didn't work for me - I modified the filter and set it using filter(), but then it just resubmits the query and the data event handler is triggered again.

How can I do this?

Thanks,

Hello Ed,

 

As it is mentioned in the serverFiltering section you can use the transport.parameterMap option to send the filter option in a different format.
