Table Headers from AJAX?

Hi,
Been looking for this a bit now and can see that there is an older thread an older thread.
Just wondered if it is possible to change the table headers with an ajax call (using datatable) or if I just should do it with the API?
Say I have ajax data like this:
[
{ "name": "hello", "today": { "value": 1, "date": "2019"}}
]
and a table initialisation which is something like this:
$('#table').DataTable({
ajax: {
url: "/table/ajax/",
type: "POST",
},
columns: [
{ data: "name" },
{ data: "today.value", name: "today.date"},
],
});
Should I just check on complete/success and then redo the column headers?

Hi @Busteren ,
This thread should help, it's asking the same thing.

Cheers, I have the headers in the HTML on initialisation, so I used the
drawCallbackand checked that the data had a length of 1 or more (there's data).If I got time, might look into adding something like that.
Cheers again,
