    Diagram

    Web API Service

    Documentation

    This example demonstrates the Diagram component communicating with a Web API service. All data editing and processing operations are delegated to the server. The DevExtreme.AspNet.Data extension's createStore method configures access to the server from the client. The server implementation is available under the DiagramEmployeesController.cs tab in the ASP.NET MVC version of this demo.
