I am trying to populate a data table using ajax call. But it fill only the first column with last value from columns.

Here is my code:

$(document).ready(function() {
  $.ajax({
    url: "http://192.168.2.32:5000/get_all_locations",
    'method': 'GET',
    'contentType': 'application/json'
  }).done(function(data) {
    console.log('dataaa', data);
    $('#myTable').dataTable({
      'aaData': data['data'],
      "columns": [{
        "data": "id",
        "data": "name",
        "data": "code"
      }]
    })
  })
})
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

<table id="myTable" class="table table-bordered table-striped">
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th>id</th>
      <th>name</th>
      <th>Code</th>
    </tr>
  </thead>
</table>

enter image description here

In the above image, id field show value of code.

  1. See https://datatables.net/examples/ajax/objects.html

    Each column should be a separate object with a data property pointing to the name of the property on the record.

    columns: [
        {"data": "id"},
        {"data": "name"},
        {"data": "code"}
    ]

  2. Your column def is an object instead of an array of objects.

    Each column config needs a data field and an optional title.

    let data = requestData();
    
    $(() => {
      $("#myTable").DataTable({
        aaData: data['data'],
        columns: [
          { "data" : "id"   , "title": "ID"   },
          { "data" : "name" , "title": "Name" },
          { "data" : "code" , "title": "Code" }
        ]
      })
    });
    
    function requestData() {
      return {
        data : [
          { code: "1007", id: 20, name: "a", is_free_zone: true  },
          { code: "1002", id: 15, name: "b", is_free_zone: false },
          { code: "1001", id: 14, name: "c", is_free_zone: false },
          { code: "1003", id: 16, name: "d", is_free_zone: false },
          { code: "1004", id: 17, name: "e", is_free_zone: false },
          { code: "1006", id: 19, name: "f", is_free_zone: false },
          { code: "1005", id: 18, name: "g", is_free_zone: false },
          { code: "1008", id: 21, name: "h", is_free_zone: false },
          { code: "1009", id: 22, name: "i", is_free_zone: false }
        ]
      };
    }
    #myTable th, #myTable td { padding: 0.33em }
    #myTable th { font-size: 0.90em }

  3. Change your code as follow

     $(document).ready(function () {
        $.ajax({
            url: "http://192.168.2.32:5000/get_all_locations",
            'method': 'GET',
            'contentType': 'application/json'
        }).done(function (data) {
            console.log('dataaa', data);
            $('#myTable').dataTable({
                'aaData': data['data'],
                "columns": [
                    { "data": "id", },
                    { "data": "name", },
                    {"data": "code",},
                }]
            })
        })
    

    you can customise each column by adding filtring or enabling search :

    {"data": "code","orderable": false, "searchable": false,},
