How do I add button on each row in datatable?

Basically your code is okay, thats the right way to do this. Anyhow, there are some misunderstandings:

  1. fetchUserData.cfm does not contain key/value pairs. So it doesn’t make sense to address keys in mData. Just use mData[index]

  2. dataTables expects some more info from your serverside. At least you should tell datatables how many items in total are on your serverside and how many are filtered.
    I just hardcoded this info to your data. You should get the right values from counts in your server sided script.

    {
     "iTotalRecords":"6",
     "iTotalDisplayRecords":"6",
      "aaData": [
    [
        "1",
        "sameek",
        "sam",
        "sam",
        "[email protected]",
        "1",
        ""
    ],...
    
  3. If you have the column names already set in the html part, you don’t need to add sTitle.

  4. The mRender Function takes three parameters:

    • data = The data for this cell, as defined in mData
    • type = The datatype (can be ignored mostly)
    • full = The full data array for this row.

So your mRender function should look like this:

  "mRender": function(data, type, full) {
    return '<a class="btn btn-info btn-sm" href=#/' + full[0] + '>' + 'Edit' + '</a>';
  }
