How to get the cell value of specific row and column in .NET MAUI DataGrid (SfDataGrid)?

4 mins read

You can get the cell value of specific row and column in SfDataGrid by using the SfDataGrid.GetCellValue method. You need to pass the underlying data object and the mapping name of the column to find the cell value.

<StackLayout>
   <syncfusion:SfDataGrid  ItemsSource="{Binding Employees}"
                           AutoGenerateColumnsMode="None"
                           ColumnWidthMode="Auto"
                           DefaultColumnWidth="155">

       <syncfusion:SfDataGrid.Columns>
           <syncfusion:DataGridTextColumn MappingName="EmployeeID"
                                          HeaderText="Employee ID" />
           <syncfusion:DataGridTextColumn MappingName="Name"
                                          HeaderText="Name" />
           <syncfusion:DataGridTextColumn MappingName="IDNumber"
                                          HeaderText="ID Number" />
       </syncfusion:SfDataGrid.Columns>
       
   </syncfusion:SfDataGrid>

   <Button Text="Click"
           HorizontalOptions="StartAndExpand"
           WidthRequest="460"
           TextColor="Black">
       <Button.Behaviors>
           <behaviors:ButtonBehavior />
       </Button.Behaviors>
   </Button>
</StackLayout>

The below code illustrates how to get the cell value of the specific row and column in a button click.

public class ButtonBehavior : Behavior<Button>
{
   protected override void OnAttachedTo(Button button)
   {
       base.OnAttachedTo(button);
       button.Clicked += OnButtonClicked!;
   }

   protected override void OnDetachingFrom(Button button)
   {
       base.OnDetachingFrom(button);
       button.Clicked -= OnButtonClicked!;
   }

   string? cellValue;
   private void OnButtonClicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
   {
       var button = sender as Button;
       var stackLayout = button!.Parent as StackLayout;
       var dataGrid = stackLayout!.Children[0] as SfDataGrid;
       foreach (var column in dataGrid!.Columns)
       {
           if (column.MappingName == "Name")
           {
               var rowData = dataGrid.GetRecordAtRowIndex(1);
               cellValue = dataGrid.GetCellValue(rowData, column.MappingName) as String;
               break;
           }
       }
       Application.Current!.MainPage!.DisplayAlert("ColumnName", cellValue, "Cancel");
   }
}
