[BUG] active_cell docstring is wrong - No key 'row_id' for active_cell in dash_table.DataTable #651
Description
Hello.
I'm working with dash_table.DataTable and reading the docs I found row_id in the active_cell argument. Examples on the Dash web are using it (https://dash.plot.ly/datatable/interactivity).
- active_cell (dict; optional): The row and column indices and IDs of the currently active cell.
active_cell has the following type: dict containing keys 'row', 'column', 'row_id', 'column_id'.
Those keys have the following types:
- row (number; optional)
- column (number; optional)
- row_id (string | number; optional)
- column_id (string; optional)
Context
- dash libraries
dash 1.4.1
dash-core-components 1.3.1
dash-daq 0.2.1
dash-html-components 1.0.1
dash-renderer 1.1.2
dash-table 4.4.1
The bug
It seems active_cell['row_id'] is not supported.
This is what I get exploring the active_cell dictionary
', '.join(['{}:{}'.format(k, v) for k, v in active_cell.items()])
# result: row:5, column:4, column_id:Company
I also have a screenshot where I force the code to get the value and get an error.
