27 Apr 20236 minutes to read

You can restrict the condition set by defining the maxGroupCount property. By default, the value is 5. In the below demo, the maxGroupCount is set to 2 .

import { QueryBuilder, ColumnsModel, RuleModel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-querybuilder';

let employeeData: Object[] = [{
      'EmployeeID': 1,
      'FirstName': 'Nancy',
      'Title': 'Sales Representative',
      'TitleOfCourtesy': 'Ms.',
      'HireDate': '22/07/2001',
      'City': 'Seattle',
      'Country': 'USA'
    },
    {
      'EmployeeID': 2,
      'FirstName': 'Andrew',
      'Title': 'Vice President',
      'TitleOfCourtesy': 'Dr.',
      'HireDate': '21/04/2003',
      'City': 'Tacoma',
      'Country': 'USA'
    },
    {
      'EmployeeID': 3,
      'FirstName': 'Janet',
      'Title': 'Sales Representative',
      'TitleOfCourtesy': 'Ms.',
      'HireDate': '22/07/2001',
      'City': 'Kirkland',
      'Country': 'USA'
    }];

    let columnData: ColumnsModel[] = [
        {
            field: 'EmployeeID', label: 'Employee ID', type: 'number'
        },
        { field: 'FirstName', label: 'FirstName', type: 'string' },
        { field: 'TitleOfCourtesy', label: 'Title Of Courtesy', type: 'boolean', values: ['Mr.', 'Mrs.'] },
        { field: 'Title', label: 'Title', type: 'string' },
        { field: 'HireDate', label: 'HireDate', type: 'date', format: 'dd/MM/yyyy' },
        { field: 'Country', label: 'Country', type: 'string' },
        { field: 'City', label: 'City', type: 'string' }
    ];
    let importRules: RuleModel = {
        'condition': 'and',
        'rules': [{
            'label': 'Employee ID',
            'field': 'EmployeeID',
            'type': 'number',
            'operator': 'equal',
            'value': 1001
        },
        {
            'label': 'Title',
            'field': 'Title',
            'type': 'string',
            'operator': 'equal',
            'value': 'Sales Manager'
        }]
    };
    let qryBldrObj: QueryBuilder = new QueryBuilder({
        width: '70%',
        dataSource: employeeData,
        columns: columnData,
        rule: importRules,
        maxGroupCount: 2
    });
    qryBldrObj.appendTo('#querybuilder');

You can use this property in the mobile mode to restrict the nested group creation.
