## What it does

This skill assists coding agents in structuring React data workflows using Syncfusion DataManager. It covers local arrays alongside remote sources like REST, OData v3/v4, GraphQL, and ASP.NET Web API. Queries are built using the `Query` class, chaining functions for paging, sorting, filtering, and grouping.

The skill enforces an adaptor decision gate. When you provide a backend link without declaring its protocol, the agent pauses code output. It reads the decision checklist and asks you to pick an adaptor such as `UrlAdaptor` or `WebApiAdaptor`. It proceeds only after your confirmation.

Remote calls follow strict safety rules. Generated setups require HTTPS, response validation, private URL variables, and restricted CORS origins. For network efficiency, the skill configures `saveChanges()` batching, middleware hooks, and `enableCache`.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add syncfusion/react-ui-components-skills --skill syncfusion-react-data-manager -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/syncfusion-react-data-manager/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/syncfusion-react-data-manager/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add syncfusion/react-ui-components-skills --skill syncfusion-react-data-manager -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/syncfusion-react-data-manager/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add syncfusion/react-ui-components-skills --skill syncfusion-react-data-manager -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/syncfusion-react-data-manager/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install syncfusion/react-ui-components-skills syncfusion-react-data-manager
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/syncfusion-react-data-manager/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add syncfusion/react-ui-components-skills --skill syncfusion-react-data-manager -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/syncfusion/react-ui-components-skills --path skills/syncfusion-react-data-manager
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/syncfusion-react-data-manager/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add syncfusion/react-ui-components-skills --skill syncfusion-react-data-manager -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/syncfusion/react-ui-components-skills/tree/HEAD/skills/syncfusion-react-data-manager/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- connect React components to OData, REST, or GraphQL services
- chain Query methods for sorting, filtering, and paging
- execute batch CRUD operations with saveChanges
- configure caching and offline storage for React views

## Example prompts
- Connect my React Grid to an OData v4 service at `https://myserver/odata/employees` using DataManager
- Set up DataManager for local array data with pagination and `enableCache` enabled
- Add authentication tokens to DataManager requests using `applyPreRequestMiddlewares`
