Description of problem:
I want dynamic column creation which add a row then fill column cells with respect to associated data, by doing this will take my hassle to click and load data on demand, user will only click to show that column than all that column data is displayed.

DataTable does not make ajax request to show/hide/generate column
Sounds like you want the
colvisbutton - https://datatables.net/extensions/buttons/examples/column_visibility/columns.htmlColin
I have colvis, thats what i'm showing video in comment. I want something that's in post
Ajax based solution actually
I'm not too clear what you're after, you need to give longer replies saying what you're trying to do. That said, you can't add columns dynamically, and once configured, DataTables expects the data for all columns to always be returned - so even if it's not visible, the data would be expected to be in the JSON,

got it, but dynamically creation and retrieving/rendering will give another boost to table, can it will be available in future versions.
That's unlikely, it's not a priority for us. That said, DataTables is open source, so you can make those changes yourself if they're necessary for you,
