3. Render the button to get the total pages

Here, we will use the `gridApi.paginationGetTotalPages()` function to get the total pages on button click. Refer the following code for the more information.

function App() {

  const [gridApi, setGridApi] = useState(null);

  const onGridReady = (e) => {
    setGridApi(e.api);
  }

  const handleBtnAction = () => {
    const totalPages = gridApi.paginationGetTotalPages();
    console.log('Total pages: ', totalPages);
  }

  // ...
  // ...

  return (
    <div class="App">
      <h2>Get the total pages in AG Grid - <a href="https://www.cluemediator.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Clue Mediator</a></h2>
      <button class="btn-action" onclick={handleBtnAction}>Get Total Pages</button>
      <div class="ag-theme-alpine ag-style">
        <aggridreact ...="" pagination={true} paginationpagesize={5} ongridready={onGridReady}>
          ...
          ...
        </aggridreact>
      </div>
    </div>
  );
}

export default App;

Here, we have added the total pages log in the console window.
