< p > DataTables has the ability to use data from almost any JSON data source through the use of the < a href =
"//datatables.net/reference/option/columns.data">< code class = "option" title = "DataTables initialisation option" > columns.data< / code > < / a > option. In its simplest
case, it can be used to read arbitrary object properties, but can also be extended to < em > n< / em > levels of nested objects / arrays through the use of standard
Javascript dotted object notation. Each dot (< code > .< / code > ) in the < a href = "//datatables.net/reference/option/columns.data" > < code class = "option" title =
"DataTables initialisation option">columns.data< / code > < / a > option represents another object level.< / p >
< p > In this example < code > hr.position< / code > refers to the < code > position< / code > property of the < code > hr< / code > object in the row's data source object, while
< code > contact.0< / code > refers to the first element of the < code > contact< / code > array. Any number of dots can be used to obtain deeply nested data.< / p >
< p > The example below shows DataTables reading information for the columns from nested objects and arrays, where the structure of the row's data source in this
example is:< / p >
< pre > < code class = "multiline" > {
"name": "Tiger Nixon",
"hr": {
