Get the data received via ajax request

rrkumar

Hi,

I need to get the data that was returned for the request made by data tables to get ajax sourced data.
I looked through the DOM and through the example but could not figure it out.
Can some one please tell me how can I get, the data that was received using the following piece of code?

$('#example').dataTable( {
"ajax": '../ajax/data/arrays.txt'
} );

Thanks.

Thanks everyone. I got the answer. Here it is in case someone needs it in future.

$('#example').dataTable( {
"ajax": '../ajax/data/arrays.txt',
"initComplete": function( settings, json ) {
console.log(json);
} } );

Exactly that - initComplete is the way to do it. You can also use ajax.json() after the data has been loaded if you need it in future.
