Set node attributes on node in jstree

When I load the tree I load it using the following snippet:

{"data":"admin","state":"closed","metadata":{"id":"\/admin\/","type":"default"}

When I grab a referenced to a particular chosen node I use:

jQuery.data(data.rslt.obj[0], "jstree").id;

However, when I add a new node, i'm not sure how to set the id of the new node. I've seen some examples that say to use the following:

var newnode = data.rslt.obj;
newnode.attr("id", new_node_id);

Where new_node_id is generated by me, but this doesn't seem to work. Can someone help?

If you are using json data to populate your tree, then you should supply it in the json string: see the docu

I just use the provided method from the CRRM documentation:

$("#treeContainer").jstree("create", parentNode, "position", {attr: {id: your_generated_id ...}, data: "nodeTitle"} ,null, true);

Works like a charm for me.
