I think you're searching for a drill-down option in the report & hope the below documentation works for that:

I'm going to assume you mean "Selection" in the context of a grid.

Then see this documentation

https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/21.2/grid-with-selection-pattern.html

And in regards to SaveInto parameter for a Button..

See this documentation

https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/21.2/Button_Component.html#parameters

SaveInto is used to perform a Save or Write action to save a value to a local variable, rule input, or execute a write to a backend data store.

1. Please explain that. What is "selection" and what is "dependent" ?

2. I use saveInto in buttons a lot with a a list of a!save() to manipulate data before submitting. Like set the create timestamp or the user who created the new item.
