Step 3:- Create Lightning Web Component : lwcDataTableRowAction.js

SFDX:Lightning Web Component >> New >> lwcDataTableRowAction.js

lwcDataTableRowAction.js [LWC JavaScript File]

  import { LightningElement, track, wire } from 'lwc';

import getDataFromContact from '@salesforce/apex/lwcAppExampleApex.getDataFromContact';

```
const columns=[
```
```
    {
```
```
        label: 'View',
```
```
        type: 'button-icon',
```
```
        initialWidth: 75,
```
```
        typeAttributes: {
```
```
            iconName: 'action:preview',
```
```
            title: 'Preview',
```
```
            variant: 'border-filled',
```
```
            alternativeText: 'View'
```
```
        }
```
```
      },
```
```
      {
```
```
        label: 'First Name',
```
```
        fieldName: 'FirstName'
```
```
    },
```
```
    {
```
```
        label: 'Last Name',
```
```
        fieldName: 'LastName'
```
```
    },
```
```
    {
```
```
        label: 'Email',
```
```
        fieldName: 'Email'
```
```
    },
```
```
    {
```
```
        label: 'Phone',
```
```
        fieldName: 'Phone'
```
```
    }
```
```
];
```
```
 
```

export default class LwcDataTableRowAction extends LightningElement {

```
  @track columns = columns;
```
```
  @track contactRow={};
```
```
  @track rowOffset = 0;  
```
```
  @track modalContainer = false;
```

   @wire(getDataFromContact) wireContact;

```
 
```
```
   handleRowAction(event){
```
```
      const dataRow = event.detail.row;
```

      window.console.log('dataRow@@ ' + dataRow);

```
      this.contactRow=dataRow;
```

      window.console.log('contactRow## ' + dataRow);

```
      this.modalContainer=true;
```
```
   }
```
```
 
```
```
   closeModalAction(){
```
```
    this.modalContainer=false;
```
```
   }
```
```
 
```
```
}
```

Step 4:- Create Lightning Web Component : lwcDataTableRowAction.js-meta.xml

SFDX:Lightning Web Component >> New >> lwcDataTableRowAction.js-meta.xml

lwcDataTableRowAction.js-meta.xml [LWC Meta Data XML]

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<LightningComponentBundle xmlns="http://soap.sforce.com/2006/04/metadata">

```
    <apiVersion>45.0</apiVersion>
```
```
    <isExposed>true</isExposed>
```
```
    <targets>
```

        <target>lightning__AppPage</target>

        <target>lightning__RecordPage</target>

        <target>lightning__HomePage</target>

```
      </targets>
```
```
</LightningComponentBundle>
```

Step 5:- Create Lightning Application : lwcApp.app

From Developer Console >> File >> New >> Lightning Application

lwcApp.app [Component Application File]

  <aura:application extends="force:slds">

```
  <c:lwcDataTableRowAction/>
```
```
</aura:application>
```
