I'm attempting to get the data from a DataSource and loading that data into an array to send to a PHP page to export to XLSX.
I've pored over the documentation, and all I see are references to use view() as part of loading data into a Kendo widget.
How can I just read the contents of the data so I can pick out the fields I need?
A "Walkthrough" section for DataSource might help.

Hi,
All the best,

That view() method is what you need. It will return the data read by the data source. You need to call it after the "change" event of the data source has been raised. Here is a quick example:
var dataSource = new kendo.data.DataSource( { transport: { read: { url: "/data.php" } }, change: function() { var data = this.view(); // use the data }});// read the datadataSource.read();Atanas Korchev
