Here's something along the lines of what you want. I think you have your gridrow configured correctly, so just focus on the image component.

load(
local!testCDT: type!CDTType(),
{
a!sectionLayout(
label: "Section",
contents: {
a!gridLayout(
label: "Editable Grid",
labelPosition: "ABOVE",
headerCells: {
a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(label: "Header Cell")
},
rows: a!forEach(
items: if(
or(
rule!APN_isEmpty(local!testCDT),
count(local!testCDT) < 1
),
{},
1+enumerate(count(local!testCDT))
),
expression: rule!/* your rule for your grid row layout here */
),
a!imageField(
images: {
a!documentImage(
document: a!iconIndicator("ADD"),
link: a!dynamicLink(
value: local!testCDT,
saveInto: a!save(local!testCDT, append(local!testCDT, type!CDTType())
)
)
}
)
}
)
}
)

@omere & @ Mike Schmitt

Thank you for your suggestions.It will be helpful if you provide an example for adding an empty cdt type to a variable using dynamic link component.

You can do this and many other things with a DynamicLink, which can be applied to any text, rich text, image, etc. For what it's worth, I strongly suggest (to everyone) to make all text links using only a!richTextDisplayField components now, as these are much more configurable and flexible than the old (and now pretty much useless) a!linkField component. But I digress.

For reference: docs.appian.com/.../Dynamic_Link_Component.html

Hi,

The steps for adding a row using an image link are the same as using the addRowLink parameter in a!gridLayout(). On your image component, add a link that appends an empty CDT type to the variable you are using for your grid.
