Hi Zack, 

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion support. 

We have analyzed your query and we suspect that you would like to select the row based on checkbox selection. 

 If you need to select/deselect the row based on checkbox selection please refer the below code example. 

<ej-grid #grid  [dataSource]="gridData" [allowPaging]="true" > 

    <e-columns> 

        <e-column type="checkbox" width="75"></e-column> 

        <e-column field="OrderID" width="75" isPrimaryKey="true" textalign="right"></e-column> 

Refer the documentation link.
