Set field value in workspace based on selected row in external data report.

Topic by Sophia Cai

What I want to implement is that in Contact Workspace, I have a report retrieving data from external web service. The report has a column named "sid". When I click on/select one row of the report results, a field(e.g. Sample_Id) in workspace is set as the data in column "sid".   

I met some problems.

1) I create an external data report via Add-In. But, how can I define the "select" action to choose one row in result? Do I need add any button in this "Add-In" report? 

2) After I choose a row of result, how can I pass the value of one column to a field in workspace? 

Thanks,

Sophia
