Hello,
We already use a function on Flexmonster to handle the data updates (https://www.flexmonster.com/api/updatedata/).
This function have an option where we can update the data partially. However this function only can be used on a "data source json", but in our project we use the "data source api".
We would like to ask for a solution where we can use the partial option to update data partially like you allow to do in a data source json.
Thank You,
Thiago

Hi Solomiia,
Is there any intention from Flexmonster to make updateData() available for datasource API?
Can we expect something like that or can we request it?
Thanks,
Thiago!

Hello, Thiago!
Thank you for getting back to us.
Please note that when using custom data source API, Flexmonster requests the data with one request. Therefore, even if the part of the data is changed, the /select request contains all the data. This is the intended behavior of sending data from the server using the custom data source API protocol, and we don't plan to change it in the near future.
Hope our answer has addressed your question.
Kind regards,
Solomiia
