HI Klaus34

if you want to pre upload the data, u can store the data in the locals and the pass the locals to the grid.

Please find the below attached code for the reference.

a!localVariables(
  local!data: {
    a!map(
      id : 1,
      dropDownValue: "Value 1",
      fileUploadValue: null
    ),
    a!map(
      id : 2,
      dropDownValue: "Value 2",
      fileUploadValue: null
    )
  },
  {
    a!gridLayout(
      headerCells: {
        a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(
          label: "Drop Down"
        ),
        a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(
          label: "File Upload"
        ),
        a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(
          label: "Remove"
        )
      },
      columnConfigs: {
        a!gridLayoutColumnConfig(
          width: "DISTRIBUTE"
        ),
        a!gridLayoutColumnConfig(
          width: "DISTRIBUTE"
        ),
        a!gridLayoutColumnConfig(
          width: "ICON"
        )
      },
      rows: {
        a!forEach(
          items: local!data,
          expression: {
            a!gridRowLayout(
              contents: {
                a!textField(
                  value: fv!item.dropDownValue
                ),
                a!fileUploadField(
                  value: fv!item.fileUploadValue
                ),
                a!richTextDisplayField(
                  labelPosition: "COLLAPSED",
                  value: {
                    a!richTextIcon(
                      icon: "times",
                      linkStyle: "STANDALONE",
                      link: a!dynamicLink(
                        saveInto: {
                          a!save(
                            local!data,remove(local!data,fv!index)
                          )
                        }
                      )
                    )
                  }
                )
              }
            )
          }
        )
      }
    )
  }
)

Thanks

Not sure in which context this is done.

You can pre-populate it in the process before passing as an input to the form as described here: docs.appian.com/.../recipe-set-the-default-value-of-an-input-on-a-task-form.html

Otherwise, if you want something self-contained, you basically load the rule input in a local, set the values with a!update and then save the local back into the rule input when the user submits the form.

a!localVariables(
  local!entity: a!update(ri!entity, "preloadedField", "value1"),
  {
    a!textField(value: local!entity.preloadedField),
    a!buttonArrayLayout(
      buttons: {
        a!buttonWidget(
          label: "Submit",
          saveInto: { a!save(ri!entity, local!entity) }
        )
      }
    )
  }
)
