$(document).ready(function () {
                            $('#myTable').DataTable({
                                "ajax": {
                                    "url": "/Temperature/loaddata",

                                        { "data": "updatedDate", "autoWidth": true, type: 'date-dd-mmm-yyyy', targets: 0 },

Solution

  • i use moment.js for datetimes (docs). so in your render:

    {
        title: "Date",// name 
        render: function (data, type, row) {//data
            return moment(row.updatedDate).format('DD/MM/YYYY hh:mm:ss');
        }
    }
