CRUDModel is empty / null when updating

[Paul Kocher]

Hi!

I followed one of your samples to enable CRUD mode on the Grid.

The problem is when I edit a record the CRUDModel passed to the Controller is empty.

Inserting works but not editing.

var dataManager = ej.DataManager({

        url: "/Dienstplan/get",

        insertUrl: "/Dienstplan/CellEditInsertDetail",

        updateUrl: "/Dienstplan/CellEditUpdateDetail",

        //removeUrl: "/Dienstplan/CellEditDeleteDetail",

        adaptor: new ej.UrlAdaptor()

    });

$(function () {

        $("#dienstplan").ejGrid({

            dataSource: dataManager,

            locale: 'de-DE',

            allowTextWrap: true,

            textWrapSettings: { wrapMode: ej.Grid.WrapMode.Both },

            editSettings: {

                allowAdding: true,

                allowDeleting: true,

                allowEditing: true,

                rowPosition: "Bottom"

            },

            actionComplete: "onActionComplete",

            isResponsive: true,

            dataBound: 'createColumns',

            columns: [

                { field: "MitarbeiterID", isPrimaryKey: true, visible: false },

                { field: "MitarbeiterName", headerText: "Mitarbeiter", width: 130, allowEditing: true },

                { field: "T1" }

                //{ headerText: "", format: "<a onclick =\"del(this)\" rel='nofollow' href=#>Delete</a>" }

              

            ]

        });

    });

Any idea why this is happening?

Hi Paul, 

Thanks for using Syncfusion products. 

We went through your code example that you have shared for us and found that you are using normal insertUrl,updateUrl and removeUrl instead of crudUrl as well as you are tried to update/insert/delete the data using CRUD model. This is the cause of this issue. 

If we want to perform the CRUD operation using CRUD model at server side then we suggest you to use following code example, 

var dataManager = ej.DataManager({ url: "/Home/DataSource", crudUrl:"/Home/CrudUrl", adaptor: "UrlAdaptor" }); 

 

        $("#Grid").ejGrid({ 

            dataSource: dataManager, 

            . . . 

             editSettings: { allowEditing: true, allowAdding: true, allowDeleting: true }, 

            toolbarSettings: { showToolbar: true, toolbarItems: ["add", "edit", "cancel", "update", "delete"] }, 

            columns: [ 

. .  . 

 

], 

 

 

        }); 

 

[Controller side] 

public ActionResult CrudUrl(EditableOrder value, string action, int key, string keyColumn) 

        { 

            if (action == "update") 

            { 

                OrderRepository.Update(value);                 

                

                 

            } 

            else if (action == "insert") 

            {               

                OrderRepository.Add(value); 

                 

            } 

            else if (action == "remove") { 

                OrderRepository.Delete(key); 

            } 

            return Json(value, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet); 

             

        }
