did you try adding that key value to https://github.com/izimobil/django-rest-framework-datatables/blob/master/example/albums/templates/albums/albums.html#L65 ?

I just did, the same result as in my app.

Console says Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 400 (Bad Request) and pop up with DataTables warning: table id=albums - Ajax error. For more information about this error, please see http://datatables.net/tn/7 gets displayed.
Log is "POST /api/albums/?format=datatables HTTP/1.1" 400 15407.

At the moment this is not possible, but it could be easily done by replacing request.query_params with request.POST in DRF-datatables code, a good test would be something like:

if request.POST.get('draw') is not None:
    params = request.POST
else:
    params = request.query_params

If you manage to make it work, feel free to open a PR with tests included.

Thanks.

Thanks for that. I tried to make it work but didn't manage. I am getting 403 on my API endpoint after making that change in filters.py:

          # parse query params
          # getter = request.query_params.get
          if request.POST.get("draw") is not None:
              getter = request.POST.get
          else:
              getter = request.query_params.get

I am not sure if problem is that code or my ModelViewSet endpoint.

Is there any update regarding the possibility of integrating pull request #70, which seems to be related to this? I had planned to use this package, but the environment I'm working in has limits on query strings, which makes using GET requests only a challenge.
