Editable grid problem

Thank you for your time The idea was to be able to choose different value for each record, for example The second row I want to choose another name, not Julia...but once I change it ...change in each row. I fix for the moment, I think that it was due to the lack of the index. But still I have an issue: how to display conditionally some columns of the grid? To show if another field in the interface is not null?

Thank you for the answer. It was a problem of rule input.

It's pretty hard to know what the problem is without:

exactly what you're trying to achieve
the code you've implemented so far

I can see that you have an 'Add Resource' option on your grid - is this what you're wanting to use to add multiple rows? Or are you using something else with a list?

What are the different values you want to add to each row? For example, did you want the Skill 1 column to increment (i.e. 1, 2, 3, 4, etc)? The main thing you have to do is update the logic that adds a new row to be dynamic depending on your data. For example, suppose I want to increment the skill like I mentioned above. You could set up your addRowLink like this to dynamically calculate the skill value by counting how many items are in the array:

a!localVariables(
  local!gridData,
  a!gridLayout(
    ...
    addRowLink: a!dynamicLink(
      label: "Add Row",
      saveInto: a!save(
        target: local!gridData,
        value: append(
          local!gridData, 
          {
            name: "John Doe", 
            skill: if(
              isnull(local!gridData),
              1,
              count(local!gridData) + 1
            )
          }
        )
      )
    )
  )
)

Hope the problem is, a rule input could be mentioned under saveInto of the fields in gridLayout instead of fv!item.'columnName'. Please refer the below link for more details.
