Hide export button or alert when no date is available

PrabhuKhanna

HI, I am looking for a event to hide the export button or alter the user not to export when there is no data available.
Is there any option to perform this. However, I can do this by Jquery hide attribute. I am just curious to know whether datatable has any simpler solution.

Hi @PrabhuKhanna ,

Buttons does have an API - so you could use buttons().disable() to disable the button (but leave it on the page), or button().remove() to remove it entirely. But yep, jQuery hide is also a valid solution.

Cheers,
