I'm trying to add a column filter manually if the particular column filter is empty using stateLoadParams. It works fine when the state is saved in localstorage. But once I delete the state from localstorage, the stateLoadParams is not getting fired. Is there any other way to do this.
this.dtOptions.stateLoadParams = function(settings, data) {
data.columns[0].search.search = 'filter';
}

Maybe you can use
searchColsto define the initial search criteria if there is no state to load. Something like this:https://live.datatables.net/nirepela/1/edit

It'll work if the initial filter value is a default one. But in my case it's not and I get this default filter from API request and datatable is rendered before the request complete. What I need is a function to set initial filter if the state is empty or null.
When the request is complete maybe you can use
state.loaded(). If itsnullthen usecolumn().search()to apply the search from the response.Kevin
