How to give row level validation in editable grid

Question

Hi All, 
 
 I have editable grid in my UI, I have validations in the rows. i gave edit button and save button on each row to edit and save the particular row. 
 but when i click on save button, it is validating the entire grid rows not only that particular row. 
 
 Can you please help how to validate only that particular row when we save it. 
 
 Thanks in advance. 
 
 SS for reference.

The icons are which kind of object? A button or a link? You can use buttons and validation groups https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/25.4/recipe-use-validation-group-for-buttons-with-multiple-validation-rules.html Just give each row its validation group and it should work

The validation group can be put in the button in each row. I guess that you are creating each row with an a!forEach gridRowLayout i guess, right? You can add for each field with validation also the validationGroup: "group"&fv!index or something similar to uniquely identify the row validation. This validation group name is to be used also in the "Save single row" button. On the save all no validation group should be provided, this will validate all the information togheter

Use two validation groups: Row fields + that row&rsquo;s Save button: validationGroup: row- & tostring(fv!index) so only that row validates.​ All editable fields (or grid-level validations) + Submit button for Edit All: validationGroup: ALL_ROWS so the whole grid validates only on final submit

If you want each row's save to validate just that row's data then use unique validationGroup for each row 's save button and the same value should be added to each component of the row. You cna use a dynamic validation group e.g. concat("validateRow",fv!index) for each grid component. This way each save button and components of that row will share the same validationGroup and would help run the validations as per expectation.

I'd personally start out with setting the field-level validations to only validate when that row is currently marked as "being edited". That would be a lot easier than using validation groups, IMHO, since its behavior is a little flakey.
