Hello Rohit,

I have been looking into your question and can you please clarify which API references do you refer to exactly?

Based on the following question:

I assume you are referring to the igGridFiltering feature and its options. Could you please confirm if my impression is correct? If not, please elaborate further on your requirements.

Let us take the caseSensitive option as an example. The API reference documentation states the following code sample:

// Initialize
$("#grid").igGrid({
        features: [
            {
                name : "Filtering",
                caseSensitive : true
            }
        ]
});

// Get
var caseSensitive = $("#grid").igGridFiltering("option", "caseSensitive");

// Set
$("#grid").igGridFiltering("option", "caseSensitive", true);

The above code snippets demonstrate that you could enable the filtering case sensitivity initially upon initialization:

$("#grid").igGrid({
        features: [
            {
                name : "Filtering",
                caseSensitive : true
            }
        ]
});

Or at runtime:

$("#grid").igGridFiltering("option", "caseSensitive", true);

And you could also get the value of this option at runtime:

var caseSensitive = $("#grid").igGridFiltering("option", "caseSensitive"); // returns true or false

However, as mentioned in the following forum post here, in order to set the caseSensitive option at run time, the igGridFiltering feature should be initialized first:

$("#grid").igGrid({
    features: [
        {
            name : "Filtering",
        }
    ]
});

In order to use the igGridFiltering feature and its options/methods/events, it must be initialized in the features option first. This is true for all the other features as well (sorting, paging, updating, etc.).

Additionally, could you please clarify what do you mean with:
