# Methods

* `setOrder(column, isAscending)`
* `setFilter(query)` - `query` should be a string, or an object if `filterByColumn` is set to `true`.
* `resetQuery()` - Resets all query inputs (user-request filters) to empty strings.
* `getData()` Get table data using the existing request parameters. Server component only.
* `refresh()` Refresh the table. This method is simply a wrapper for the `serverSearch` method, and thus resets the pagination. Server component only
* `getOpenChildRows(rows = null)` If no argument is supplied returns all open child row components in the page. To limit the returned dataset you can pass the `rows` arguemnt, which should be an array of unique identifiers.
* `setCustomFilters(params)` set custom filters values. Expects an object with key-value pairs
* `resetCustomFilters()` (server component) resets all custom filters to `null`
* `getRequestParams()` (server component) get current request parameters
* `setRequestParams(params)` (server component) - see
