Passing KENDO Grid data view to MVC controller - ajax

Question

I have an issue sending Telerik Kendo Grid viewdata to MVC Controller. I've tried to make ViewModel etc but i just can't figure this one out.
Here is my code to populate grid:
var grid = $("#grid").kendoGrid({
dataSource: {
data: kontdata.Data,
schema: {
model: {
fields: {
Id: { type: "number", editable: false },
Name: { type: "string" },
Number: { type: "string" },
Info: { type: "string" },
Email: { type: "string" },
Category: { type: "string" },
MarketingAllowed: { type: "number", editable: false },
AddedDate: { type: "date", editable: false }
}
}
},
pageSize: 20
},
height: 500,
scrollable: true,
toolbar: kendo.template($("#template").html()),
serveroperation: false,
sortable: true,
editable: { mode: "incell", confirmation: false },
selectable: "row",
filterable: true,
pageable: true,
columns: [
{
field: "Name",
title: "Nimi"
},
{
field: "Number",
title: "Numero"
},
{
field: "Info",
title: "Info"
},
{
field: "Email",
title: "Email"
},
{
field: "Category",
title: "Kategoria"
},
{
field: "MarketingAllowed",
title: "Markkinointikielto",
width: "160px"
},
{
field: "AddedDate",
title: "LisättyPvm",
format: "{0:dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss}"
},
{
command: [
{ name: "destroy", text: "Poista", width: "70px" }
]
}
]
}).data("kendoGrid");
And here is the code to post grid view data:
function tallennagridi() {
var griddata = $("#grid").data("kendoGrid");
$.ajax(
{
type: 'POST',
url: '/Contactlist/Savegriditems/',
dataType: 'json',
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
data: JSON.stringify({ griditems: griddata.dataSource.view() }),
success: function (result) {
alert('success');
}
});
};
And here is the controller:
public JsonResult Savegriditems([DataSourceRequest] DataSourceRequest request, CustomerViewModel griditems)
{
var joku = griditems;
return Json(joku, "Content-type: text/x-json; charset=utf-8", JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
Any help would be appreciated.

My mistake, CustomerViewModel gridItems should have been:
CustomerViewModel[] gridItems;
