dash-ag-grid

What it is and what it does

Dash AG Grid is a Python wrapper that brings the AG Grid JavaScript data grid library into Dash applications as a native component. It lets you display and interact with tabular data using a rich set of built-in features: column resizing, reordering, pinning, sorting, filtering, row selection, cell editing with provided editors, custom cell components, theming, and data export to CSV. The Community version (included by default) covers most common grid use cases; Enterprise features like advanced aggregation, server-side operations, and Excel export are available when you provide a valid AG Grid license key.

The package depends only on dash and ships as a pure Python wheel, making installation straightforward. It supports Python 3.6 through 3.11 and is actively maintained. The grid handles both simple data display and complex interactive workflows, with support for custom components in cells, conditional formatting, and keyboard navigation.

Use it for:

• Display and sort tabular data in a Dash dashboard with minimal setup using built-in sorting and filtering.
• Build an interactive data explorer where users can reorder, pin, and resize columns without server-side code.
• Create an in-browser data editor with cell validation and custom input components.
• Export tabular analysis results to CSV directly from the Dash app for downstream processing.
• Render data with row spanning and custom formatting rules for complex layouts.
• Embed live-updating grids in monitoring dashboards with row animation on data changes.

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying

Dash AG Grid wraps the AG Grid JavaScript library as a Dash component, letting you embed interactive data grids with sorting, filtering, editing, and theming directly in Dash applications.

Yes. Dash AG Grid is a mature, actively maintained component with no known vulnerabilities, low install friction, and permissive MIT licensing. It is the standard way to add rich, interactive data grids to Dash applications. Install it if you need sortable, filterable, editable tables in a Dash app—it handles both simple display and complex workflows. Community features cover most use cases; Enterprise features are optional and require a separate license.

Install

dash-ag-grid on PyPI

pip install dash-ag-grid

uv add dash-ag-grid

poetry add dash-ag-grid

Installing dash-ag-grid

Before you install

Low friction: pure Python wheel with a single runtime dependency on dash. Actively maintained with a release within the last 30 days and no known vulnerabilities.

License in practice

MIT license permits commercial use, modification, and distribution with minimal restrictions. Note that the underlying AG Grid JavaScript library has both free (Community) and paid (Enterprise) versions; enterprise features require a valid license key but are included in the package.

Quickstart

pip install dash-ag-grid

import dash_ag_grid as dag
from dash import Dash

app = Dash()
app.layout = dag.AgGrid(
    rowData=[{"col1": "value1"}],
    columnDefs=[{"field": "col1"}],
)
app.run(debug=True)

Verify before relying

• Whether enterprise AG Grid features (grouping, advanced filtering, server-side operations, Excel export, pivoting) are fully functional without additional setup beyond providing a license key.
• Performance characteristics with large datasets and acceptable responsiveness thresholds.
• Compatibility with specific versions of Dash beyond the stated Python version support.
