We are wondering if it is possible to show flexmonster window with the initial N rows immediately and allow some user interaction right away while still loading the data into Flexmonster.

Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to us.
Currently, Flexmonster does not allow interaction with the component until the whole dataset is successfully loaded. However, if you want to work with a large data set, we recommend using Flexmonster Data Server - a special server-side tool implementing the custom data source API. It is responsible for fetching data from a data source, processing, and aggregating it. Then the data is passed to Flexmonster Pivot in a ready-to-show format. The Data Server significantly reduces data loading time and enables analyzing large datasets.
Flexmonster Data Server supports CSV and JSON data sources as well as different databases.
The detailed guide you can find in our documentation: https://www.flexmonster.com/doc/getting-started-with-data-server/
You can find more information about Flexmonster Data Server and other data sources with their comparison on this page: https://www.flexmonster.com/blog/how-to-choose-the-best-data-source-to-use-with-flexmonster/
We hope it helps. You are welcome to contact us in case other questions arise.
Kind regards,
Nadia
