ejSchedule DataManager

Question

Have started playing with the DataManager and the scheduler and a URL adapter

displaying appointments works.

then i started dragging and dropping appointments and it calls the web service as well.

It seems that both querying the data as well as updating the data are POST calls to the same URL.

How can i determine if the web service was called for querying data vs saving data?

Hi Michael, Thanks for contacting Syncfusion support. Using dataManager with Schedule can be used to load data as well as perform CRUD operations on remote data binding. Initially, the data will be loaded through “url” path and then the CRUD operations on Schedule can be processed using “crudUrl” path. We have also prepared the simple CRUD sample which handles new appointment creation, editing existing appointments or deleting and also while dragging or resizing an appointment based on your requirement, which can be downloaded from the below location.

Client Side: 
 
var dataManager = ej.DataManager({ 
     url: "/Home/GetData", // used to load data initially 
     crudUrl: "/Home/Batch", // used to add / update / delete appointment 
     adaptor: new ej.UrlAdaptor() 
}); 
 
$("#Schedule1").ejSchedule({ 
     appointmentSettings: { 
          dataSource: dataManager 
     } 
}); 


Server Side: 
 
public JsonResult GetData()  // initially this function returns appointments to load it in schedule 
{ 
    IEnumerable data = db.ScheduleDatas.Take(100); 
    return Json(data, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet); 
} 
 
public JsonResult Batch(EditParams param) 
{ 
    if (param.action == "insert" || (param.action == "batch" && param.added != null)) 
    { 
        // this block of code will execute while inserting the appointments             
    } 
    if ((param.action == "remove") || (param.action == "batch" && param.deleted != null)) 
    { 
        // this block of code will execute while removing the appointment 
    } 
    if (param.action == "update" || (param.action == "batch" && param.changed != null)) 
    { 
         // this block of code will execute while updating the appointment 
    } 
    IEnumerable data = new DataClasses1DataContext().ScheduleDatas.Take(500); 
    return Json(data, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet); 
}

Kindly check the above sample and revert us with further details, if we have misunderstood your requirement or else if you need any further assistance on this. Regards, Sellakumar K
