Hi,
I’ve an issue about expanding all nodes programmatically, having a multilevel field in a custom data source API.
Here's a JSFiddle to reproduce the issue.
If you click on "expand all", all fields are expanded except for the multilevel field "Item" (= Category/BusinessType/Color).
I notice that if I drag and drop the whole field "Item" into the columns area (fields popup) then the "Expand all" button works, but if I drag and drop any level under "Item", no matter if I choose Category or BusinessType then the expand doesn't work (by selecting only the level color you can't reproduce the issue because in that case the field is already expanded).
So, the difference that seems to cause the issue is the field 'levelName' in the column object.
This is working:
.... columns:{[{
uniqueName: "Item"
}]} ...
this isn't:
.... columns:{[{
levelName: "Business Type",
uniqueName: "Item"
}]} ...
Thank you!

Hi, Ilaria!
Thank you for reporting this issue and for the detailed description of it.
We will provide a fix in the minor release with the ETA Feb 21st.
Meanwhile, you can try grouping items in a folder as a temporary workaround. With this approach, the expandAllData API call works correctly. Please check this example of folder usage:

You are welcome to write to us in case other questions arise.

Hi Maksym!
The workaround of grouping items in a folder is not feasible for us because in that way we will loose the possibility to have a single filtering mask for the hierarchy (see the attachment).
We will wait until Feb 21st.
Thank you,

Hi Nadia,
I realized right now that the issue is not completely solved. If you use the hierarchical field specifying a level, you will have the same issue.
I changed the previous JSFIddle
if you expand a Color and then a Country-> the level Destination/BusinessType is empty
Thank you!
