Adding data-* attrributes to jquery datatable

Question

I able to add id to each row of data table using rowId ,as explained in documentation.

$('#myTable').DataTable( {
    ajax: '/api/staff',
    rowId: 'staffId'
} );

But how do I add data-* attributes to the row.

For example I want to have add data-spaceid and ata-enrollmentid to the row.

<tr data-spaceid="20146" data-enrollmentid="32" id="123"/>

use createdRow, Callback for whenever a TR element is created for the table's body to add data attribute. Here is an example.

$('#myTable').dataTable( {
  'createdRow': function( row, data, dataIndex ) {
      $(row).attr('data-spaceid', '20146');
  },
});
