GitHub user dosubot[bot] added a comment to the discussion: can i use datatable in my superset pivot plugin to return the table
<!-- Answer --> Superset’s pivot table plugin does not natively support integrating external datatable libraries (like DataTables.js) or column-level filtering features. The plugin uses React and the `react-pivottable` package for rendering tables, and its TableRenderer component is the main place where table cells are rendered. While you could theoretically replace or wrap the table rendering logic to use a React-based datatable library that supports column filtering, integrating a jQuery-based library like DataTables.js would be non-trivial due to React’s rendering model. Customizing the TableRenderer or swapping in a React datatable (such as react-table) would be the most practical approach for adding column filtering to the pivot table plugin. Recent changes have focused on HTML rendering in cells, not on datatable integration or filtering features [source](https://github.com/apache/superset/pull/34351). <!-- Dosu Comment Footer --> *To reply, just mention [@dosu](https://go.dosu.dev/dosubot).* --- <sup>How did I do?
