Deep Linking and stateSave

trongart

Using deep linking as described here with stateSave does not seem to work as stateSave saves the search filter value. I tried to apply the following, but this does not help as it simply empties the search filter:

"stateSaveParams": function (settings, data) {
data.search.search = "";
}

How can I prevent stateSave from even accessing the search filter so it can work with search.search?

Instead of using data.search.search = "";, which will clear the search you might need to delete the search.search property. See if this works:

delete data.search.search;

That works! Thank you!!

Is there also a way to prevent the searchBuilder conditions from being saved in stateSave? I tried the following under stateSaveParams, but this does not work:
delete data.searchBuilder.getDetails();

I'm not sure of what exactly to delete, without setting it up to look at, but you can find out by using console.log(data) in the option stateSaveParams function. You will see all the data being saved.

Thank you! I can find both search and the searchBuilder under console.log(data), but adding console.log(data.searchBuilder); to stateSaveParams produces undefined. How could I empty all searchBuilder criteria so none are saved with stateSave?

The SearchBuilder extension must add the searchBuilder property outside of stateSaveParams. So you won't have access to it there. Use stateLoadParams instead, like this:

I would do the remove in the stateLoadParams, that's the only place where it's important,

@kthorngren @colin This works in stateLoadParams. Thank you very much!
