Find and replace cell value with Datatables plugin

Question

I'm looking to find and replace specific values from a known column using a plugin called Datatables.

Here is my code for that:

table.columns(5).search('valuetochange').cells().every( function () {
  this.data('newvalue');
});

But it doesn't work, I also tried other solutions but I didn't find a way to update the cells.

thanks for the help

I haven't used the search method, but alternatively this will definitely work

table.column(5).nodes().each(function (node, index, dt) {
  if(table.cell(node).data() == valuetochange){
    table.cell(node).data('100');
  }
});
