I have a Kendo Grid on the page. When the user clicks a button, I want to send the rows (data objects) from the grid to the controller. The controller will return a partial view, which will be used as the content for a new window. I've got the window load from a partial view working using .refresh({url:}), but I'm having trouble getting the grid data sent. Seems like I should be able to use something like this, but it's not working for me:

                    dialog.refresh({
                        url: "/Controller/Action",
                        data: JSON.stringify({items:$("#grid").data("kendoGrid").dataItems}),
                        dataType: "json",
                        type: "POST",
                        contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8'})

 

On the controller I have the items parameter defined as IEnumerable<Item> but it gets a null value.

Hi,

the grid does not host its data - its bound dataSource does. I may suggest that you retreive the data from there. The datasource has data and view methods for that purpose.
