How to get the RowIndex of a row in SfDataGrid when using DataGridTemplateColumn?

The .NET MAUI DataGrid provides various resolving methods to resolve the row index of grid rows based on certain criteria. The actual RowIndex of a row can be resolved by using the ResolveToRowIndex(recordRowIndex) method in SfDataGrid.

The RowIndex of a row can be obtained from DataGridTemplateColumn by retrieving the record index of the row using the bound data from its BindingContext and passing the recordRowIndex to the ResolveToRowIndex() method.

XAML

<syncfusion:DataGridTemplateColumn HeaderText="ID Number" MappingName="IDNumber">
    <syncfusion:DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
            <Button Text="{Binding IDNumber}" WidthRequest="120" HeightRequest="40" Clicked="Button_Clicked"/>
        </DataTemplate>
    </syncfusion:DataGridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate>
</syncfusion:DataGridTemplateColumn>

C#

public partial class MainPage : ContentPage
{
    public MainPage()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
    }

    private void Button_Clicked(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        var button = sender as Button;
        var record = button.BindingContext as Employee;
        var recordRowIndex = viewModel.Employees.IndexOf(record);
        var rowIndex = datagrid.ResolveToRowIndex(recordRowIndex);
    }
}

Note : RowIndex of the row can also be accessed by using CellTapped, CellDoubleTapped and CellLongPress events. When using complex layout inside a Template, ensure to set the InputTransparent property of the views loaded in the DataTemplate of the DataGridTemplateColumn as True.
