[quote userid="52140" url="~/discussions/f/plug-ins/39256/google-charts-plugin/148808"]You would need to +1 the array to get the actual row.[/quote]

thats correct! I also noticed the index mismatch just after sending the code here.

Meanwhile I tried a candlestick chart as well and looks like similar code as above can help get the selected row and thus we can retrieve id of the data selected. Adding the code here for reference

a!localVariables(
  local!data: {
    {
      Col0: "Mon",
      Col1: 20,
      Col2: 28,
      Col3: 38,
      Col4: 45
    },
    {
      Col0: "Tue",
      Col1: 31,
      Col2: 38,
      Col3: 55,
      Col4: 66
    },
    {
      Col0: "Wed",
      Col1: 50,
      Col2: 55,
      Col3: 77,
      Col4: 80
    },
    {
      Col0: "Thu",
      Col1: 77,
      Col2: 77,
      Col3: 66,
      Col4: 50
    },
    {
      Col0: "Fri",
      Col1: 68,
      Col2: 66,
      Col3: 22,
      Col4: 15
    }
  },
  googleCandlestickChartField(
    label: "Test",
    chartColumnData: {
      {
        type: "string",
        id: "Col0",
        rowDataKey: "Col0"
      },
      {
        type: "number",
        id: "Col1",
        rowDataKey: "Col1"
      },
      {
        type: "number",
        id: "Col2",
        rowDataKey: "Col2"
      },
      {
        type: "number",
        id: "Col3",
        rowDataKey: "Col3"
      },
      {
        type: "number",
        id: "Col4",
        rowDataKey: "Col4"
      }
    },
    chartRowData: { local!data },
    onSelection: {
      a!save(
        ri!var,
        index(
          local!data,
          tointeger(save!value.row) + 1,
          tointeger(save!value.column) + 1,
          {}
        )
      )
    }
  )
)

Just one slight change, the row setup on the plugin is a zero based array, Appian starts the row count at one so is out of step. You would need to +1 the array to get the actual row.

Thank you Harsha! I managed to get the taskId stored in a local varaible through indexing and saving directly in the selection variable without a!save, but as a secondary local variable. But with your code you get the full row data ... thank you so much for your help.

The onSelection parameter is storing the row and column id of the selected dataset in chart. You can try the below code to understand the behaviour of the attribute. Since its a pie chart thus column is always null. Hope it helps!

a!localVariables(
  local!data: {
    { Tasks: "Work", Hours: 11 },
    { Tasks: "Eat", Hours: 2 },
    { Tasks: "Commute", Hours: 2 },
    { Tasks: "Sleep", Hours: 7 },
    { Tasks: "Hobbies", Hours: 2 }
  },
  googlePieChartField(
    label: "Test",
    chartColumnData: {
      {
        type: "string",
        id: "Tasks",
        rowDataKey: "Tasks"
      },
      {
        type: "number",
        id: "Hours",
        rowDataKey: "Hours"
      }
    },
    chartRowData: { local!data },
    onSelection: {
      a!save(
        ri!var,
        index(local!data, save!value.row, {})/*save!value*/
        
      ),
      
    }
  )
)
