Issue:
Issue i am facing is in GetEmployees JsonResult function, DataSourceRequest command has always Filters = null. Whereas, my request is showing requests like,
Query String Parameters:
take:2
skip:0
page:1
pageSize:2
filter[logic]:and
filter[filters][0][field]:DeptId
filter[filters][0][operator]:eq
filter[filters][0][value]:3
and Request link is like,
GetEmployees?take=2&skip=0&page=1&pageSize=2&filter%5Blogic%5D=and&filter%5Bfilters%5D%5B0%5D%5Bfield%5D=DeptId&filter%5Bfilters%5D%5B0%5D%5Boperator%5D=eq&filter%5Bfilters%5D%5B0%5D%5Bvalue%5D=3
currently I am able to get filters in server side using HttpRequestWrapper as mentioned below in GetEmployees JsonResult
int deptId = Convert.ToInt16(Request.Params["filter[filters][0][value]"]);
but is there any better approach to get these filters at server side? for example using DataSourceRequest?
Thanks.
