Vue Data Grid Pagination

Pagination

Page through the Data Grid with a page-size selector, range info and CoreUI pagination controls instead of virtualized scrolling.

On this page

Pagination breaks the dataset into fixed-size pages with familiar Previous/Next controls. Use it when users expect discrete pages, when you want a predictable page height on the screen, or as the client-side counterpart to server-side data (which always paginates). Pagination is mutually exclusive with virtualization — turning it on switches the grid out of windowed scrolling.

Pagination mode

Instead of virtualization the grid can paginate — with a page-size selector, range info and CoreUI .pagination controls. This demo also shows a custom formatter, an actions column built with the cell-actions scoped slot, and row selection.

vue
<script setup lang="ts">
import { CDataGrid } from '@coreui/vue-data-grid'

const firstNames = ['Alice', 'Bob', 'Carol', 'Dave', 'Eve', 'Frank', 'Grace', 'Heidi', 'Ivan', 'Judy']
const lastNames = ['Smith', 'Jones', 'Brown', 'Taylor', 'Wilson', 'Davies', 'Evans', 'Thomas']
const roles = ['admin', 'editor', 'viewer']

const items = Array.from({ length: 1000 }, (_, i) => {
  const name = `${firstNames[i % firstNames.length]} ${lastNames[i % lastNames.length]}`
  return {
    id: i + 1,
    name,
    email: `${name.toLowerCase().replace(' ', '.')}${i}@example.com`,
    role: roles[i % roles.length]
  }
})

const columns = [
  { key: 'id', label: '#', width: 90 },
  { key: 'name', label: 'Name' },
  { key: 'email', label: 'Email', style: { width: '30%' } },
  {
    key: 'role',
    label: 'Role',
    width: 110,
    formatter: (value: unknown) => String(value).toUpperCase()
  },
  {
    key: 'actions',
    label: '',
    sortable: false,
    filterable: false,
    width: 120
  }
]

const edit = (item: { name: unknown; id: unknown }) => alert(`Edit ${item.name} (#${item.id})`)
</script>

<template>
  <CDataGrid
    :columns="columns"
    :items="items"
    :item-key="(item) => String(item.id)"
    :pagination="{ pageSize: 10 }"
    row-selection
  >
    <template #cell-actions="{ item }">
      <button type="button" class="btn btn-sm btn-outline-primary" @click="edit(item)">

Options

Pass pagination for the defaults, or an object to configure it:

KeyTypeDefaultDescription
pageSizenumber10Rows per page.
pageSizeOptionsnumber[][5, 10, 20, 50]Choices in the page-size selector.
position'top' | 'bottom' | 'both''bottom'Where the pagination bar renders.
infobooleantrueShows the Showing X–Y of Z range summary.

Every page change emits pagination-change with the grid’s pagination state. Drive paging yourself through the headless table — e.g. grid.value?.table.setPageIndex(3).
