  A clunky option would be to re-add the button again every time you change page, which you can detect with the page.

  A tidier solution would be to add the button into the pagination control. This link here shows some other pagination plug-ins that you could use a template,

  The dom option is the way to do that, although you'll need a little CSS as well: https://live.datatables.net/nakakuju/1 .

  new DataTable('#example', {
     dom: 'lfrti<"toolbar">p'
  });
   
  document.querySelector('div.toolbar').innerHTML = '<button>My button</button>';
  

  div.toolbar {
    float: right;
  }
  

  Note that the output view needs to be wide enough for DataTables' CSS not to collapse the controls down.
