Cannot create property 'searchBuilder' on string

Error messages shown:

dataTables.searchBuilder.mjs:3388 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot create property 'searchBuilder' on string 

Description of problem:
This happens on the front end side when I set ajax.data to JSON.stringify(data) with contentType:"application/json" in order to enable serverSide processing. It seems like this is an error in the search builder package when creating searchBuilder attribute to the data while the data is being string:

this.s.dt.on('preXhr.dtsb', function (e, settings, data) {
                if (_this.s.dt.page.info().serverSide) {
                    data.searchBuilder = _this._collapseArray(_this.getDetails(true));
                }
            });

However, according to ajax document, data should be stringified so that the server can decode it. I don't know what I'm missing here.

Thank you very much for the support! Let me know if you need any other information.

Best,

Hi, solution is very simple (lol)
In AJAX, instead of using JSON.stringify(obj) in data(), please use it in beforeSend()
Thanks
