We need to select a row on table
We are getting a list of objects from an API using a DataPage and a Rest connector. Now we need to display the list on a table and we need the functionality of beeing able to select a row and map the values of this row to our case.
We are using Constellation theme on a Pega 24.1.3. The big issue is that we are not finding the way to build this solution in a view. We need to display to user a table with the values that we recover with the DataPage, and then the user has to select one of the rows.

For this requirement, I would assume that:
1. You have a REST integration made of a data page D_myAPIConn returning a list of objects in D_myAPIConn.pxResults. The data page is sourced from your connector myAPIConn
2. You have a section mySection which is meant to display your fields
3. You are aware that mapping those values to your case means to copy those values from the API to the some properties in your case context (ORG-APP-Work-YourCase)
First, you will identify the api property which will allow you to select a row, if any property like that exists, you can create an appropriate one, I can tell you how to achieve it if needed. For this example, my APIkey is id
Secondly, you will identify a case property myCaseKey which will allow you to select the row from the list (not as a table but as a dropdown)
Then, you will configure myCaseKey as the screenshot below. P.S.: You must set the Presentations > Edit options as Auto for the field
I also shared the screenshots corresponding to the data transform to create
In this example, I specified myCaseUpdate, the case property to update after selecting a row, as read only. Only the system (data transform in action set) can update the property

@RusselK1 Hello! Thank you by your solution, but I misexplained the issue (I have added some information). We are using Constellation Theme and we can not use sections. The big issue is that we have tried it in different ways, and we don't find the way to give the user the capabilty os select a row
