How to Capture Event Properties from a Specific Table Row

Avatar

I am trying to capture an event property when a user clicks on a table row. The property is the contents of a specific cell in that row called "Status", so I am trying to capture the status that row is in when it is clicked.

I can see "RowID" in my css, but I don't know how to pass that row ID so that I capture the status only from the row being clicked. 

Is there a way to capture the RowID on click and then use that row ID in the event property?

To use a Pendo example, I would want to capture what is in the Page column for the row being clicked (so capture "Procedure Note" in this example).

    Hi Erin W,

    Thanks for sharing your thought in the Discussion Community!
     
    This will depend how many table rows you want to capture. Pendo can only capture 5 Event properties per Feature. If your use cases exceeds this, I would suggest using Track Events.
     
    Hope this helps!

    If you have a consistent event.target or document.activeElement returned when a row is clicked you can use event properties feature with advanced js to navigate the dom hierarchy to that cell and grab the innerText or textNode read only property
