Typically you add a class to the same html tag as the data attribute, for example class="myclass". Then add a dynamic action on click of jquery selector .myclass. In javascript then reference the value of the data-id with the expression this.triggeringElement.dataset['id'] - this could be used in an action of type "Set Value" to set a page item value to the data-id attribute of a clicked row.

Note that it doesn't have to be "data-id". It's possible to use "data-whateveryouwant". So you would have a "data-empno", a "data-ename" and a "data-deptno", all in the same html tag. Also explained here

When you use: example

 01. use the class="myClassName"
 02. add dynamic action on click of jquery selector .myClassName
 03. set the page item value of multiple data attribute with js expression

$(this.triggeringElement).data('id');

$(this.triggeringElement).data('last_name');
