kendogrid batch edit appending row causes to post data - datagrid

Question

This code populates datagrid with json formated data received from /api/notes/ by tornado app...
$(document).ready(function () {
dataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource({
pageSize: 10,
autoSync: true,
transport: {
read: {
url: '/api/notes/',
dataType: 'json',
type: 'GET'
},
create: {
url: '/api/notes/',
dataType: 'json',
type: 'POST'
},
update: {
url: '/api/notes/',
dataType: 'json',
type: 'PUT'
}
},
schema: {
data: function(reply) { return reply.rows; },
model: {
id: "id",
fields: {
id: { type: "string" },
name: { type: "string" },
author: { type: "string" },
}
}
},
});
$("#grid").kendoGrid({
dataSource: dataSource,
navigatable: true,
pageable: true,
height: 300,
editable: true,
toolbar: ["create", "save", "cancel"],
columns: [
{ field: "id", title: "ID", width: 150 },
{ field: "name", title: "Book", width: 150 },
{ field: "author", title: "Author", width: 100 },
{ command: "destroy", title: " ", width: 110 }
],
});
});
if I click create instead of popping up a row, like here a post triggered with empty data parameter, what's wrong here

Answer 1

Try it with autoSync removed or set to false on the DataSource. According to the docs:
Enables (true) or disables (false) the automatic invocation of the sync() method for each change made.
So I think when you try to insert the row, it immediately puts it into the DataSource, causing it to do a sync(). The demo you linked to doesn't specify autoSync either.
