Hi
FM version - Feb 2021 v 2.8.27
We have changed our Data Source from JSON type to API type (Custom Data Source)
In our previous version of FM (2.327 with JSON type) when we used to refresh data using pivot.updateData, we passed a parameter "keepMembersOrder: true" to stop the report from resorting with updated data
If we do the same for CDS it doesn't work, please help
function refreshCustomData() {
pivot.updateData({
type: "api",
url: "http://......",
index: "data-set-1"
},
{
keepMembersOrder: true,
ignoreScroll: false
});
}

Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to us.
Please make sure the index specified in the `updateData` method is the same as the one currently used in the component. Otherwise, the scroll will be ignored.
We hope it helps.
Feel free to contact us in case other questions arise.
Regards,
Illia

I am pretty sure the index never changed but the pivot re sorted on flexmonster.updateData
kindly see the attached screenshots
You prepared a JSFiddle example (http://jsfiddle.net/flexmonster/r2kt5s36/) for me for another query regarding "updateData"

If you could kindly alter the data heavily on refreshCustomData then you may be able to re create the issue
I have no way to alter the data in https://olap.flexmonster.com:9500 for you

Could you please kindly confirm that the solution will be a patch for 2.8 and not just in the new release 2.9
⋅ June 9, 2021
Hello,
Thank you for your question.
Please note that version 2.8.33 was the latest minor of the 2.8. From now on, all the minor updates will be released in version 2.9. It includes upcoming fixes discussed in the current thread.
We recommend migrating to major version 2.9 in order to keep getting the latest features and fixes. Please note that in most cases updating to 2.9 will not differ from updating to the minor version due to the backward compatibility of our newest release. Still, we suggest checking our migration guide to make sure no additional changes are needed before the update.
Feel free to reach out if any additional questions arise.
Kind regards,
Illia

@Illia Yatsyshyn,
Any possible solutions for "keeping members’ order" issue?
⋅ June 15, 2021
Hello,
We are happy to announce that now you can use the keepMembersOrder property when updating data from the custom data source API. This is included in the 2.9.1 version of Flexmonster.
You are welcome to update the component. Here is our updating to the latest version guide for assistance: https://www.flexmonster.com/doc/updating-to-the-latest-version/.
Please let us know if it works for you.
Kind regards,
