Hi! Everyone, Is there a way to insert a button (not checkbox) inside a dataframe. So that for each row we have a separate button and when clicked we can perform some action.

Hello Vedant :wave:, As far as I know, you can’t directly add a button inside a (native) dataframe – There may be a hack but I’m not aware of it! :smile: Some questions: Why wouldn’t the checkbox be a viable option? Have you also tried other options such as streamlit-aggrid ? Thanks, Charly

I’m facing the same issue, I have a table where one column needs to redirect to a ‘details’ page with that row’s info. I want to use st.page_link to go to the details page since it preserves st.session_state and is generally easy to use, or add a st.button with a st.switch_page callback. A link colu…

One nice feature of this table is the ability to clear the selection. [image]

The link you presented reinforces what I said. Checkboxes imply zero or more selections, but in my use case only one option should be selected, which triggers a redirect to another page. Radio buttons would be more appropriate since options are mutually exclusive, but it still feels strange clicking…

You are incorrect again. You said [image] BobtheOwl: My main issue with checkboxes is that from a design pov they imply that more than one option can be selected

Would like to see a solution as well… Aggrid is cool, but I want to use actual streamlit buttons, not HTML rendered ones
