Grid does not refresh after adding rows to datasource programmatically

[Peter Rasmussen]

I have this grid bound to TheDocumentList:

<SfGrid @ref=_documentListGrid Width="100%" DataSource="@TheDocumentList" Toolbar="@(new List<string>() { "Add", "Delete" })" AllowPaging="true" AllowFiltering="true" AllowSorting="true" AllowResizing="true" RowHeight="25">

...

I have a background task to create a new issue of a document, and this is added to the list of documents

await WaitForDocumentTaskToFinish("WebCreateNextIssueTasks", taskId, "Creating Next Issue", "Please wait while the next issue is being created");

await RefreshDocumentsList(); // Reload the document list with the new issue included

await _documentListGrid.Refresh(true); // Refresh the document list grid

if (TheDocumentList != null)

{

    // This finds the document with the highest DocId, which is the new issue document just created (DocId=1006 in my case)

    var testFindNewDocumentIssue = TheDocumentList.OrderByDescending(d => d.DocId).FirstOrDefault();

    // This now finds 41 documents in the source list, which includes the new issue document

    var numDocsInSource = TheDocumentList.Count;

    // This should find the new document in the grid data source, which should be the same as testFindNewDocumentIssue - but it is not (This still has DocId=1005)

    var testFindNewDocumentInGridData = _documentListGrid.DataSource.Cast<CDBDocumentList>().OrderByDescending(d =>d.DocId).FirstOrDefault(); // This should be the same as testFindNewDocumentIssue

    // This now finds the number of documents in the grid data source - only 40 documents are found, not 41

    var numDocsInGrid = _documentListGrid.DataSource.Cast<CDBDocumentList>().Count();

}

Why does the _documentsListGrid not get the new record loaded??

[Peter Rasmussen]

Found the reason:

- My call to RefreshDocumentsList creates a new list instance. I need to set this on the Grid:

 _documentListGrid.DataSource = TheDocumentList; // Update the grid data source with the new document list

Then it works
