I'm looking at @allan's response to my question in this post:
https://datatables.net/forums/discussion/79423/datatables-as-an-input-with-serverside

I'm noticing when the datatable as a field is mentioned in his it's tagged somehow with Markdown syntax similar to how api and init are tagged, but I don't see the syntax listed in the website Markdown documentation:
https://datatables.net/manual/tech-notes/8

I tried -field field but it doesn't seem to be the correct one.

    The Editor links need an e at the start - e.g. e-api field() or e-field datatable. I'll add that to the docs!

    Actually, it appears it does say that already, just below the list code prefixed:

    The `-api <i>x</i>`, `-event <i>x</i>`, `-init <i>x</i>` and `-button <i>x</i>` code links can optionally be prefixed with an e to indicate that it is an Editor API, event, option or button that is being documented (Editor has its own documentation).

    The e-field option is missing though. Thanks!
