Validate for duplicate field value on create/update action

[Olivier]

Hello,

Sorry if this has already been asked, but I couldnt find a topic on that subject.

I would like to know if it's possible to validate for a duplicate value for a field when submitting an add/edit of a record in a grid (popup edit) and return an error in the form to inform the user that the value is already used.

I am able to do it in the appropriate handle after the submit but i can't seem to prevent the form to close and to display an error message to the user.

Thanks!

Hello Olivier,

In order to prevent the form from closing you need to modify the IsCancelled property of the event arguments in the update/edit handler. Setting its value to false will keep the grid in Insert/Edit mode and the PopUp will remain opened. This way you will also be able to display the necessary error message.

More information as well as a relevant example you can find in this article - https://docs.telerik.com/blazor-ui/components/grid/editing/overview and this sample project - https://github.com/telerik/blazor-ui/tree/master/grid/remote-validation
