toggle checkbox after the initialization

[sabitrakhanal]

How can we select/check or deselect/uncheck the checkbox after the initialization? I have a server side enabled datatables with thousands of record so I would like to select the row when the data is entered on textbox.

I got a similar scenario on a table with a few thousand users loaded with server-side pagination. I managed to instantiate the component with all options unselected and make it work for selecting users in my context. But when I already have pre-selected users, I have trouble making the datatable component maintain their checkboxes checked.
