The MultiColumn ComboBox can load data from either local sources or remote services using the DataSource property. Supported data types include Array, ObservableCollection, ExpandoObject, DynamicObject, and DataManager.

The DataManager acts as an intermediary between the service endpoint and the MultiColumn ComboBox, requiring minimal setup to connect effectively.

DataManager.Url - Specifies the service endpoint for data retrieval.
DataManager.Adaptor - Determines the adaptor used, with ODataAdaptor as the default for remote binding. Syncfusion.Blazor.Data provides various adaptors, including:
- UrlAdaptor - For generic remote services.
- ODataAdaptor - For OData endpoints.
- ODataV4Adaptor - For OData V4 endpoints.
- WebApiAdaptor - For Web APIs adhering to OData standards.
- WebMethodAdaptor - For interacting with web methods.

The example below demonstrates the MultiColumn ComboBox bound to a customer data collection using DataManager.
