Hi all, could someone show me an example of the get current sorters values (column, field, dir)
how to implement the getSorters() function in a flow to get the data, as mentioned in the Tabulator documentation.

I've been trying with send payload command to the ui-table as well as with msg.ui\_control as indicated in the ui\_table documentation, but I´m not able to get any data or values back.
Maybe I need to create a function myself or apply some callback, but I'm at the moment somewhat lost.
Any help or constructive input is very much appreciated.
I'm using for testing a notebook with Windows 10,
Node-RED Version V3.0.2
Node.js v16.14.0
node-red-node-ui-table 0.4.3
