Row filtering autocomplete question

[Brad]

I have a grid with GridFilterMode.Row.  I am paging on the server retrieving "PageSize" number of records at a time.  I am also using the request.Filters and request.Sorts when I get the data.  The problem I have is with the autocomplete on the filter.  It does not return all the distinct values for the field, only the distinct values for the "PageSize" number of values that I am returning.  It is using the same controller action as my datasource for paging, sorting, etc.  Is there a way to populate those filters from all distinct values of the field instead of only for "PageSize" distinct values?

Hello Bradley,

There can be separate DataSource specifies for the filter in the Grid column. It is configured via the columns.filterable.dataSource option. The configuration in the .NET Core wrappers would look similar to the following:

columns.Bound(p => p.ShipName).Filterable(ftb => ftb
                .DataSource(ds => ds
                    .Ajax()
                    .Read(r=>r.Action("Action", "Controller")
                    )
                )
            );
