There is no DataSource Model Id property specified. Cancel

  Hi,
  I'm new to KendoUI, and I created a grid in a view to list all instances of my model (StopLocation) and it works fine, except when adding the .Selectable() line to enable multiple selection, I get an error: "There is no DataSource Model Id property specified.". Anybody knows how to define id for this grid? Or is there something wrong with .Selectable() syntax below?
  
  

  @( Html.Kendo().Grid((IEnumerable<Route.StopLocation>)ViewData["Stops"])

                          .Name("selectedStops")

                          .Columns(columns =>

                          {

                              columns.Bound(p => p.StopNo).Title("Stop No.");

                              columns.Bound(p => p.Id).Title("ID");

                              columns.Bound(p => p.StopLocation).Title("Stop Location");

                          })

     // .Selectable causes NotSupportedException: There is no DataSource Model Id property specified.

                          .Selectable(s => s.Mode(GridSelectionMode.Multiple))

                          )

  
  Thanks in advance.

  Just ran into the same issue and I found the solution in the serverediting example for the grid.
  
  I changed my markup by adding the .Datasource section which has the missing model.ID referred to by the error message.
  
  

  @model IEnumerable<TestClass.Models.CompanyModel>

  @(Html.Kendo().Grid(Model)

          .Name("Grid")

          .HtmlAttributes(new { style = "border: 0;" })

          .Columns(columns =>

          {

              columns.Bound(p => p.CompanyID).Groupable(false);

              columns.Bound(p => p.Company);

          })

   

          .Sortable()

          .Filterable()

          .Navigatable()

          .Selectable(selectable => selectable.Mode(GridSelectionMode.Multiple))

          .DataSource(dataSource => dataSource

              .Server()

              .Model(model => model.Id(p => p.CompanyID))

          )

          

  )
