Error messages shown:
No error messages in console, but table fails to load dynamically when used with custom filtering and export buttons.

Description of problem:
Hi everyone,

I’m integrating DataTables into a small internal dashboard tool where users can filter, sort, and export training records. The table loads fine with static data, but when using server-side processing along with custom filters (dropdowns and date range), the data doesn’t update properly after filtering..especially when exporting to Excel or CSV.

I’m trying to create a smooth user experience as part of an upskilling platform we’re building, focused around Microsoft certifications tracking. Any ideas on what might be going wrong with the combination of filters and export?

Would really appreciate if someone could point me to a good working example or suggest the right sequence for applying filters and initializing export buttons.

Thanks in advance!

Sounds like there is an error in whatever server-side processing script you are using. If you could link to a page showing the issue I'll be able to say for sure.

See this FAQ regarding exporting with server side processing.
