Learn to Fix Magento 2 Reset Button in Grid Column Not Working

Magento 2 Reset button in grid column not working? You’re at the right place then!

Magento 2 UI component grid offers a simplistic view of data in tabular format, making it accessible to merchants.

Recently, I came across a scenario where the Reset columns functionality in a custom grid was not working as expected.

In case you’ve created a custom admin UI grid in Magento 2, and the Reset columns button is not working, then this solution post is for you! Learn the complete method that I used to fix the Reset button not working for columns in Magento 2 admin UI grid.

Method to Fix Magento 2 Reset Button in Grid Column Not Working

There can be several reasons why the Reset button is not working in the admin UI grid in Magento 2. In most cases, this can be solved by defining bookmarks in the grid; follow these steps to do that:

Step 1: Open the .xml file of the UI grid. It is present at app/code/Vendor/Module/view/adminhtml/ui_component/{grid_name}.xml

Step 2: Add the following code within the listingToolbar node:

<listingToolbar name="listing_top">
   ...
   <bookmark name="bookmarks">
       <argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
           <item name="config" xsi:type="array">
               <item name="storageConfig" xsi:type="array">
                   <item name="namespace" xsi:type="string">customer_listing</item>
               </item>
           </item>
       </argument>
   </bookmark>
   ...
</listingToolbar>

Step 3: Flush Magento 2 cache by using the following command:

php bin/magento cache:flush

That’s it! Adding the bookmarks will fix the Reset button not working issue in the grid column and it will start working as expected
