  Well I don't know any Java so I can't tell you how to get those values into Java. But in Java Script it is fairly easy.

  You could use the 'postSubmit' event to get hold of those values like this:

  Editor
        .on( 'postSubmit', function (e, json, data, action, xhr) {
             var keyArr = Object.keys(data.data);
             var id = keyArr[0];
             var office = data.data.id.office;
             var username = data.data.id.username;
             var password = data.data.id.password;
          })
  

  Something similar should work in Java too. It is just object notation.

  You can modify the data that is being submitted to the server using the ajax.data option as a function. There are examples on that page which show how you can effectively flatten the object.

  Note that if you do flatten it like that, you loose the ability to do multi-row editing.

  Ye, so I looked into ajax.data and I'm going for the "Add data to the request by manipulating the data object" method but now I still can't find a way to access the in-form input id's to send it with the request.
  I gave my fields an ID and now I tried to do this:

  editor = new $.fn.dataTable.Editor( {
  "ajax": {
  url: "GetNotaryServlet",
  dataSrc: 'data',
  data: function ( d ) {
  d.office = $('#office').val();
  }
  },
  "table": "#notaryTable",
  "idSrc": 'id',
  "fields": [ {
  label: "Kantoor:",
  name: "office",
  id: "office"
  }, {
  label: "Username:",
  name: "username"
  }, {
  label: "Password:",
  name: "password"
  }
  ]
  } );

  Unfortunately, it gives me an empty value "office = "
  Is there something I'm doing wrong?

  data: function ( d ) {
    $.each( d.data, function ( key, values ) {
      d.id = key;
      d.field1 = values.field1;
      ...
    } );
