Angular - is there a way to get the cell id on click

Question

I would like to click on any cell of my mat-table and get the row and column of my cell.

I know that with this code I get the clicked row, but I can't figure out how to get the correspondent column.id

<tr mat-row *matRowDef="let row; columns: displayedColumns;" (click)="anyfunction(row.id)"></tr>

you need to set the (click) event in the <td> element instead of <tr>

thank you, do I have to do this for every single column or is there a way to write this code simplified? – leocibu Jan 17 '22 at 14:30
i think you have to add it for every single column. Maybe you can use a `*ngFor` – Zerotwelve Jan 17 '22 at 14:46
