I am setting data into flexmonster using setReport API(Ajax call is made to load the data), now lets say, AJAX call ended with an exception, in this case, I want to show some error message in flexmonster grid. Is there any way by which I can achieve it.

Hello, Ankush,
Thank you for writing to us!
Could you please specify how the report object used in setReport looks like for your case? If the dataSource section of the report contains filename pointing to the script which returns the data, there is an approach to display custom error message. For more details please refer to this forum thread: https://www.flexmonster.com/question/return-error-occurred-in-api/. Please share your thoughts on the subject.
Regards,
Tanya

Hi Tanya,
Please check this fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/trLb40ao/18/
In actual code, getData function makes a post call for getting the data. I can't make get call and cannot use filename approach as well, because it will also make get call only.
report: {
dataSource: {
dataSourceType: "json",
filename: "http://test.com/dataFile"
}
}

Hi Ankush,
Thank you for the clarification.
We will add the new API call to show an error message in Flexmonster. It will be released in the minor version on October 8th.
Will this work for you?
Kind regards,
Iryna
