Trusted by the world's leading companies

Data source integration

Connect the Data Grid to local and remote data sources, including JSON, REST APIs, OData services, GraphQL endpoints, and external providers. Support consistent data access and integration across modern applications and services.

React Data Grid with client-data

Local data binding

Bind the React Data Grid directly to JSON arrays and in-memory datasets for displaying and managing records without server communication. Local data binding is suitable when data is stored locally and client-side data operations are required.

React Data Grid with server-side data

Remote data binding

Connect the Data Grid to REST APIs, OData services, back-end services, and, through your application's API, databases such as SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and others. Remote data binding is suitable when paging, sorting, filtering, grouping, or CRUD processing is handled by the server.

React Data Grid with data integration

Data integration

Syncfusion DataManager adaptors enable the Data Grid to connect to REST APIs, OData services, GraphQL endpoints, and database-backed applications through server-side APIs. Custom data binding supports integration with applications and frameworks such as Redux, Django, Express.js, Next.js, and other application frameworks. External data processing is suitable when filtering, sorting, paging, and CRUD operations are handled by services, databases, APIs, or custom back-end applications.

Yes. The Data Grid supports server-side filtering, sorting, paging, grouping, and CRUD actions when these operations are handled by backend logic.

Yes. The React Data Grid supports hierarchical and master-detail data views using child grids. Related records and nested data can be displayed within expandable rows while maintaining the relationship with the parent record.

Data Grid custom binding feature allows connecting APIs from frameworks like Django, Flask, FastAPI, Express.js, or Next.js directly to the grid’s data source. This enables server‑side operations such as filtering, sorting, paging, grouping, and CRUD actions.

React Data Grid can connect to databases such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, and others through APIs. Data returned by the API is assigned to the grid’s data source, allowing records to be displayed and managed within the grid.

Yes. The React Data Grid allows custom parameters to be included with remote data requests, enabling server-side processing based on application-specific requirements.

Custom data binding allows the React Data Grid to connect to external services or application state. The binding process supports retrieving data from APIs and performing server-side filtering, sorting, paging, grouping, and CRUD operations.
