        properties:
            id: ~
            view_link:
                type: url
                route: acme_task_view
                params: [ id ]
            update_link:
                type: url
                route: acme_task_update
                params: [ id ]

        actions:
            view:
                type: navigate
                label: acme.task.datagrid.view_action.label
                icon: user
                link: view_link
                rowAction: true
            update:
                type: navigate
                label: acme.task.datagrid.update_action.label
