Please refer to this code. You can replace the button with Record action

 local!employees: {

Hi Rahul, 
 I hope we are saving the selected rows locally. If yes, we can use a particular condition to do so. Take the reference from the below code, You can compare the unique column in the "contains" function. 
 
 Let me know if you need more clarification on this.
