Hi,
I want to display the Link on read only grid and once i click on that link then a pop up kind window should open where i can see another read only grid with column name, address, age and download link to download these details. Can someone help.

There are no pop ups in Appian besides record related actions.
What about this: docs.appian.com/.../grid-with-detail-pattern.html
Thanks a lot ..but this will not work since i have 6 column to display
You can also create a related action for that grid and call that related action in your grid using a!recordActionField(). When user click on the link you can show other grid in popup sereen
What I'd usually do for this (considering various design decisions based on details you haven't given here), would be to provide a link on the initial grid, which when clicked, opens up an optional section / box layout / card (per your preference and space considerations) below the original grid, containing the additional details you'd like to see. Inside that new component could be a "close" link which causes the interface to return to the original state and allow the user to select a different row from the original grid if they like.
Ya mike that is the actual use case.. Can you help me with code if possible
In your top grid, have your link save the primary key of the row you want to interact with into a local variable. When that local variable has any value, show the additional section that displays further details about the selected item. for the "close" control, simply clear out the local variable.
Confirming..I need to use dynamic link in top grid ?
Yup, since it would only be saving a value into an on-form / local variable, the dynamic link is what you'd want here.
