kendo ui - KendoUI: resetting grid data to first page after button click

Question

I have the following scenario:

in my page I have a grid (with pagination) bounded to a datasource. When I click on the button "Extract" the grid gets populated (reading paginated data through a web service). Then i select "page 2" through grid pagination. Again the web service is invoked to return data.

Now: I would like to click on "Extract" once more, to reload and show data on the first page. I'm not sure which is the best way.

I would like to make just one call to the service (with input parameters) and have pagination index in the grid resetted.

I am now using the following code:

$("#btnExtract").bind("click", function(e) {
    var grid = $("#section-table").data("kendoGrid");
    grid.dataSource.read( {parameter: "value"} );
    grid.dataSource.page(1);
});

but it actually makes two calls to the service.

Answer 1

If you are doing server side paging it should be enough doing grid.dataSource.page(1) since this will invoke the read exactly as you already realized.
