ODATA Grid Datasource with POST and parameters

[Ondřej]

Hi,

we want to get datasource for grid through ODATA service operation using POST while passing additional arguments.
We are using .NET WCF DataService.
ServiceOperation itself works as well, but parameter is not passed (is always null) and request is always perfomed with GET.
We tried trial version as like as GPL, nothing works as supposed.

Please can you clarify correct using of data parameters passing to service operations using POST?
Thx

JS code:
$("#grid").kendoGrid({
dataSource: {
type: "odata",
serverPaging: true,
serverSorting: true,
pageSize: 10,
transport: {
read: 
{
type:"POST",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
url:"http://localhost/Flexica_ODATA/product.svc/GetSamples",
datatype:"JSON",
data: { param: "testx" }
},
}
},
serverPaging: true,
height: 280,
pageable: true,
sortable: true,
columns: ["ProductName", "ProductCode"]
});

Hi, this is the same problem I was facing here.

As soon as you set "type: odata" no additional parameters are passed. This should be fixed, at least an explanation of this behaviour is very welcome.

Hi,

 I confirm this is a bug. OData datasource ignores user provided arguments. The problem should be addressed in the attached files (use either kendo.all.min.js or kendo.data.odata.min.js depending on your setup).

All the best,

I've the same problem, but I need the NOT minified source version, because I've customized the script to work with SP2010 ListData.svc.#
Bye,
