Issue with reading all values of a column when pagination is true

When pagination is true I am able to read only 10 values, it doesn't read values on next pages (2,3,4,5,...)

var ColumnIndex = 25;
$('#example tr').each(function () {
                    var Column= $(this).closest('tr').find('td:eq('+ ColumnIndex +')');
                    var ColumnValue = Column[0].innerText;
                    alert(ColumnValue );
});

    Hi @ayushsa01 ,

    Yep, that's because your code is reading it directly from the table visible on the screen. If you use the API call, column().data(), you'll get access to all the data on all pages for that column.

    Cheers,

    You can use toArray(), so something like

    $('#example').DataTable().column(25).data().toArray();
