Select specific row from only read grid and passing information in process model

There are 2 common (and both fairly easy) approaches for this:

1, and more "officially" supported, is to use a Record Action on the grid row in question.

2, more manual (but slightly more flexible, as in doesn't *have* to be tied to a configured Related Action), is to define a column on the grid as a link (i usually like using a Rich Text Icon in a narrow column), which invokes the Start Process Link upon click, passing in the information for that row.

Thanks Mike, do you have some example in the documentation to show me please?

I didn't find a recipe within the Appian Docs but this is a very simple use case - I just wrote this by hand (taking about 3 minutes) to give you a working example of the second approach:

a!localVariables(
  
  local!data: {
    a!map(id: 1, name: "Mike"),
    a!map(id: 2, name: "Alberto")
  },
  
  a!gridField(
    data: local!data,
    columns: {
      a!gridColumn(
        label: "Name",
        value: fv!row.name
      ),
      a!gridColumn(
        label: "Id",
        value: fv!row.id
      ),
      a!gridColumn(
        label: "",
        align: "CENTER",
        helpTooltip: "Edit Row Contents",
        width: "ICON_PLUS",
        value: a!richTextDisplayField(
          value: a!richTextItem(
            text: {
              a!richTextIcon(icon: "Edit", size: "MEDIUM", caption: "Edit Row")
            },
            link: a!startProcessLink(
              processModel: 1234,  /* replace with a constant which points to your process model */
              processParameters: {
                dataPv: fv!row  /* replace "dataPv" with the name of the PV holding an instance of the row CDT */
              }
            ),
            linkStyle: "STANDALONE"
          )
        )
      )
    }
  )
)

Thank you so much sir!

follow this idea and the process model has a startup form and when that cancel button is clicked it left the underneath Temp page open, is there a way to do a clean close and return back to the gridField component in interface where the process model is started from? I tried using both linkSyles STANDALONE and INLINE and both has the same residual effect. How do I clean close the process model when it terminated getting back to the original interface without adding another User Input Task pointing back to the original interface.

This should be pretty straightforward.  What is your current setup?

Thanks Mike, The solution is 'pretty straightforward' and is working. I resolved it by removing the  activity chaining that leads to the End Node and End Tasks. Sorry that I didn't pay attention to that before.
