Took me some time but I finally got everything working. Your answers and different approaches helped aswell. So, here’s my CRUD implementation if anyone gets in trouble with this:

Or you can check project demo:
https://marinantonio.github.io/angular-mat-table-crud/
Key parts are in table.ts file:
....
addNew(issue: Issue) {
const dialogRef = this.dialog.open(AddDialogComponent, {
data: {issue: issue }
});
dialogRef.afterClosed().subscribe(result => {
if (result === 1) {
this.exampleDatabase.dataChange.value.push(this.dataService.getDialogData());
this.refreshTable();
}
});
}
startEdit(i: number, id: number, title: string, state: string, url: string, created_at: string, updated_at: string) {
this.index = i;
this.id2 = id;
console.log(this.index);
const dialogRef = this.dialog.open(EditDialogComponent, {
data: {id: id, title: title, state: state, url: url, created_at: created_at, updated_at: updated_at}
});
dialogRef.afterClosed().subscribe(result => {
if (result === 1) {
// Part where we do frontend update, first you need to find record using id
const foundIndex = this.exampleDatabase.dataChange.value.findIndex(x => x.id === this.id2);
// Then you update that record using dialogData
this.exampleDatabase.dataChange.value[foundIndex] = this.dataService.getDialogData();
// And lastly refresh table
this.refreshTable();
}
});
}
deleteItem(i: number, id: number, title: string, state: string, url: string) {
this.index = i;
this.id2 = id;
const dialogRef = this.dialog.open(DeleteDialogComponent, {
data: {id: id, title: title, state: state, url: url}
});
dialogRef.afterClosed().subscribe(result => {
if (result === 1) {
const foundIndex = this.exampleDatabase.dataChange.value.findIndex(x => x.id === this.id2);
this.exampleDatabase.dataChange.value.splice(foundIndex, 1);
this.refreshTable();
}
});
}
private refreshTable() {
// If there's no data in filter we do update using pagination, next page or previous page
if (this.dataSource._filterChange.getValue() === '') {
if (this.dataSource._paginator.pageIndex === 0) {
this.dataSource._paginator.nextPage();
this.dataSource._paginator.previousPage();
} else {
this.dataSource._paginator.previousPage();
this.dataSource._paginator.nextPage();
}
// If there's something in filter, we reset it to 0 and then put back old value
} else {
this.dataSource.filter="";
this.dataSource.filter = this.filter.nativeElement.value;
}
}
