Hi @Kenneth1!
Unfortunately, it isn't possible to call a client action when the checkbox is checked, and we don't have a workaround for that, but I added to our backlog the creation of a new event that will allow you to do that. 
We don't have a timeline for this feature yet but I will let you know as soon as we have one.

Best regards,
Jéssica

Hi Kenneth,

I do have a workaround to suggest based on the observation: On checkbox selection, the entire row gets selected. I would suggest following the mentioned approach only if you can't wait for the update from OutSystems about this requirement.

• Add the below JS in the Grid OnInitialize event handler flow
• Define a screen action called SetCheckedRowData with two input parameter - JSON_Object (Object type) and JSON (Text type)

JavaScript Snippet:

GridAPI.GridManager.GetGridById($parameters.GridWidgetId).rowMetadata._grid._rows._g.onSelectionChanged = function(e) {
	var currentRowIndex = e.row;
	var currentRow = e._p._rows[currentRowIndex];
	
	if(currentRow.isSelected) {
	    var objectName = Object.keys(currentRow._data)[0];
	    var rowData = currentRow._data[objectName];
		$actions.SetCheckedRowData(rowData, JSON.stringify(rowData));
	}
	this.selectionChanged.raise(this, e);
};

Note: The screen action will only get invoked when the checkbox is selected.

Demo Screen: GetRowDataOnChkBoxSelection

Refer to the attached oml

I hope this helps you!

Kind regards,

Benjith Sam

Hello @Benjith Sam
I have used the same approach where I want to triger a client action when the user select the checkbox from the grid, it works fine for me the good part, But when ever I try to navigate to another page it gives me the following error, let me know if we can fix this


Thanks & Regards

@Benjith Sam Thanks for the posting.  The JavaScript above seems to work when a Selection box is checked.  It doesn't seem to fire when the box is unchecked.  Same thing 

Any ideas how to make it work for both checking and unchecking?
