'Deselect selected rows from ag grid angular

Is there any grid api to deselect ag-grid selected rows programatically? I'm trying to perform some operation on the selected row, basically an async operation , after which I need to deselect this row from the grid .

Solution 1:^[1]

For anyone that finds this in the future:

Allow manual row deselection by setting gridOptions.rowDeselection = true as Victor said.

Programatically deselect all rows using gridOptions.api.deselectAll() as OP discovered.

To programatically deselect a single row, use rowNode.setSelected(false). rowNode.setSelected(isSelected, clearSelection) can be used to select rows as well, and will deselect all rows other than the subject rowNode if clearSelection is true.

Solution 2:^[2]

set gridOptions.rowDeselection to true with rowSelection as multiple will deselect a selected by click when holding control key.

Solution 3:^[3]

I believe it is weird but setting rowDeselection to true didn't work for me. What I wanted was simple: Being able to deselect a row when it was selected already. So I checked the Row Selection section of AG Grid's documentation and I find this:

rowMultiSelectWithClick: ... Clicking a selected row in this mode will deselect the row.

Huh! Yeah that sounds like what I need! But I don't want multiple selection...! I want single selection ONLY. So I thought maybe setting rowSelection to single will fix it and the selection will be single and deselectable. And... yes it works! The reason I was in doubt initially when doing this is using "rowMultiSelectWithClick" together with "single rowSelection" sounds contradictory, but it works anyways and this is the thing that matters really! :) So e.g., if you're using it in React (quite similar in Angular or Vanilla JavaScript), just add:

<AgGridReact
    rowSelection="single"
    rowMultiSelectWithClick={true}
    //...
>

You could try the deselectAll() method in the GridApi. Though, it doesn't appear that AgGrid has an option to deselect specific rows.

Solution 5:^[5]

To deselect a specific row/node use api.getSelectedNodes() instead of getSelectedRows(). Then for each node use node.data for the row info you need and then node.setSelected(false) to deselect when done.

let selected = gridOptions.api.getSelectedNodes();
_.each(selected, function(node) {
    let row = node.data;
    //stuff
    node.setSelected(false);
});
