Set default value in textbox - filter contains

[alex]

Hello, I would like to know how it is possible to insert a default value inside the column filter box at the ngOnInit of the component. I would like to dynamically pass a string type parameter that searches in the corresponding column for all the values contained in the grid datadource.

 

ngOnInit() {
  var doc = this.myService.docName();
  // set doc name in the column of kendo grid and activate filtering
}

Hello Alex,

Thank you for the provided screenshot.

Setting the filters array of the State object is the right way to go when a filter value needs to be used as default. Please check this article and example for more details:
