Hi @simaRa ,

You would do that in columns.render,

Cheers,

can you help me How can I do it
In fact, I need to change the name of the column for filtering

{
data: 'account_id',
render: function(data, type, row) {
if (data=='-1') {
name: 'account.account_alias'
}
else
name:'colleagues.colleague_fullname'
}
},
This is not working

Your render function needs to return a value.
