kendo ui grid prevent posting data on client side validation error

I have done some clientside validation. 

 parameterMap: function(options, operation) {
            if (operation !== "read") {
                var valid = customValidation(options);
                console.log(valid);
                if (valid) {
                    return JSON.stringify({ discountPromotionViewModel: options });
                }
            }
        },

And if the customValidation method returns false i don't want the grid to post the data. Now it posts an empty model so it still reaches my controller. How do i prevent it from even posting the data?

Do your validation inside Grid's event save, then if it's invalid result prevent it with e.preventDefault function. It will prevent POST request to server.

$("#grid").kendoGrid({
    // some grid configuration 
    save: function(e) {
        var model = e.model,
            valid = customValidation(model);
        if(!valid) e.preventDefault();
    }
});
