Maintain the State Persistence in Blazor QueryBuilder Component

17 Nov 20232 minutes to read

State persistence allows the QueryBuilder to retain the current QueryBuilder state in the browser local storage for state maintenance. This action is handled through the EnablePersistence property which is set to false by default. When it is set to true, the QueryBuilder Rules will be retained even after refreshing the page.

NOTE

The state will be persisted based on ID property. So, it is recommended to explicitly set the ID property for QueryBuilder.

@using Syncfusion.Blazor.QueryBuilder

<SfQueryBuilder ID="querybuilder" DataSource="@EmployeeData" EnablePersistence="true">
    <QueryBuilderRule Condition="or" Rules="@Rules"></QueryBuilderRule>
    <QueryBuilderColumns>
        <QueryBuilderColumn Field="EmployeeID" Label="Employee ID" Type="ColumnType.Number"></QueryBuilderColumn>
        <QueryBuilderColumn Field="FirstName" Label="First Name" Type="ColumnType.String"></QueryBuilderColumn>
        <QueryBuilderColumn Field="HireDate" Label="Hire Date" Type="ColumnType.Date"></QueryBuilderColumn>
        <QueryBuilderColumn Field="Country" Label="Country" Type="ColumnType.String"></QueryBuilderColumn>
    </QueryBuilderColumns>

    List<RuleModel> Rules = new List<RuleModel>()

            new RuleModel { Field="EmployeeID", Label="EmployeeID",  Type="Number", Operator="notequal", Value = 1001 }
    };

    public List<EmployeeDetails> EmployeeData = new List<EmployeeDetails>
    {
        new EmployeeDetails{ FirstName = "Martin", EmployeeID = 1001, Country = "England", City = "Manchester", HireDate = new DateTime(2014, 4, 23) },
