Filter not working After destroy and initialize the table

ashiquem01 · July 2023

Dear Team,

Imagine a scenario where I am adding data from a popup. Once I click the submit button, the data is saved to the database, and the datatable is destroyed. Then, I call the GetAPI to fetch the data again, and it populates correctly. However, the problem I'm facing is that the data is not being filtered as external drop down.

Your example doesn't appear to demonstrate the issue described? It doesn't do a destroy at all.

Might your destroy be removing the event listener on your select perhaps? Failing that, if you could update the test case to show the issue, that would be great.

Also worth noting that you want to avoid destroying the DataTable if you can. If the new data's structure is the same as before, just use clear() and rows.add() to display the new data (or ajax.reload() if you are using ajax to load the data).

@allan Can you please check function OnSuccess(response).
I am calling GetApi from OnSuccess after Data Added

    $(document).ready(function () {
        RetrieveDate();
    });
    function RetrieveDate()
    {
        $.ajax({
            url: "/Finance/GetAllCashbook",

            dataType: 'json',
            type: "POST",
            contentType: "application/json",
            //data: JSON.stringify(filter),
            success: function (result) {
                initializeDataTable(result.data)
            }
        });
    }

    function initializeDataTable(data) {
        $('#Ashique').DataTable({
            filter: true,
            "processing": true,

That's a lot of code! Please can you update your test case to demonstrate the issue you want help with, that'll be easiest way for us to debug it.

Thanks, @allan The execution of ajax.reload(); is running smoothly.
I have a question. I invoked the data table function within $(document).ready.

In the scenario where GetAPI returns a "bad request" response, how can I handle this situation?

Normally we use
AjaxCOde........
success: function (result) {
initializeDataTable(result.data)
}

Now I am using below code and ajax.reload() is working finely

$(document).ready(function () {
var table = $('#Ashique').DataTable({
            ajax: {
            url: "/Finance/GetAllCashbook",
            contentType: "application/json",
            type: "POST",
            // "data": JSON.stringify(filter),
            "datatype": "json"
        },
        columns: [
                     {
                         title: "Sl No.",
                         name: "sl_no",
                         targets: 0,
                         data: ",
                         defaultContent: "",
                     },
                     {
                         title: "Date and Time",
                         render: function (datum, type, row) {
                             return "<div>" + row.date_ + "</div> <div style=\"font- 
                         size:12px;color:#837668\">" + row.time_ + "</div>";
                         },
                     },
                     {
                         //data: "description",
                         title: "Description",
                         render: function (datum, type, row) {
                             return "<div>" + row.description + "</div> <div style=\"font- 
                       size:12px;color:#837668\">" + row.entry_user_name + "</div>";
                         }

                     },
             ],


  )};
)};
function AddSuccess(response) {
        var table22 = $('#Ashique').DataTable();
        table22.ajax.reload();
    }

The 400 Bad Request is a response from the server. First start by looking at the server logs for the error to see why its responding with the 400 error. Let us know what you find.

All functions of DataTables are working for me.
I recently asked a question about handling AJAX calls with the success function, which is typically used to process the API response, whether it succeeds or fails. I need guidance on how to implement this in the following code.

$(document).ready(function () {
var table = $('#Ashique').DataTable({
            ajax: {
            url: "/Finance/GetAllCashbook",
            contentType: "application/json",
            type: "POST",
            // "data": JSON.stringify(filter),
            "datatype": "json"
        },
        columns: [
                     {
                         title: "Sl No.",
                         name: "sl_no",
                         targets: 0,
                         data: ",
                         defaultContent: "",
                     },
                     {
                         title: "Date and Time",
                         render: function (datum, type, row) {
                             return "<div>" + row.date_ + "</div> <div style=\"font-
                         size:12px;color:#837668\">" + row.time_ + "</div>";
                         },
                     },
                     {
                         //data: "description",
                         title: "Description",
                         render: function (datum, type, row) {
                             return "<div>" + row.description + "</div> <div style=\"font-
                       size:12px;color:#837668\">" + row.entry_user_name + "</div>";
                         }
 
                     },
             ],
 
 
  )};
)};

You can't use the success function of ajax - as the manual says:

Must not be overridden as it is used internally in DataTables. To manipulate / transform the data returned by the server use ajax.dataSrc, or use ajax as a function.

There are two options there, or you can use one of the events, such as xhr perhaps,
