[Question]How can I get the value of one cell by clicking on another cell in a datarow?

Question

I'm fairly new to Flet, but really liking it. I have a datatable, and my table forms well. I'm trying to set a cell where the click event (on_tap) will call a function to define an action (right now, just trying to print the value from the first cell (cell 0) in the row.

If I click on row 2 cell[3], how do I get the value of row 2 cell[0]? Here's what I have so far, got the row. part from google's ai, which seems to be wrong about flet about 99% of the time.

def toggle_ssh(e):
            selected_peer_ssh = row.cells[0].value
            if selected_peer_ssh:
                print(selected_peer_ssh)
            else:
                print("Didn't get the peer name for ssh toggle.")

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Code sample

def toggle_ssh(e):
            selected_peer_ssh = row.cells[0].value
            if selected_peer_ssh:
                print(selected_peer_ssh)
            else:
                print("Didn't get the peer name for ssh toggle.")

Error message

File "/home/myuser/Developer/flet-test/main.py", line 52, in toggle_ssh
    selected_peer_ssh = row.cells[0].value

Just to expand on this, I know I can click the datarow and get any cell value with an index for that cell, but only if I don't have an on_tap for the cell I click in. If you have the on_tap event on the cell it overrides the on_tap event for the row. In my case, each cell has a different action based on the on_tap event, and two of the cells depend on the value in the 0th position of the cell indexes.
