The available built-in command buttons are:

Blazor TreeGrid with Command Column

Custom command

The custom command buttons can be added in a column by using the Commands property of the TreeGridColumn component and the action for the custom buttons can be defined in the CommandClicked event.

The following sample code demonstrates adding custom command in the Manage Records column and the CommandClicked event which triggers when the command is clicked,

@using TreeGridComponent.Data;
@using Syncfusion.Blazor.TreeGrid;
@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Grids;

<SfTreeGrid DataSource="@TreeGridData" IdMapping="TaskId" ParentIdMapping="ParentId" TreeColumnIndex="1" Toolbar="@(new List<string>() { "Add", "Edit", "Delete", "Update", "Cancel" })">
    <TreeGridEvents CommandClicked="OnCommandClicked" TValue="TreeData.BusinessObject"></TreeGridEvents>
    <TreeGridEditSettings AllowEditing="true" AllowAdding="true" AllowDeleting="true" Mode="Syncfusion.Blazor.TreeGrid.EditMode.Row" />
    <TreeGridColumns>
        <TreeGridColumn Field="TaskId" HeaderText="Task ID" IsPrimaryKey="true" Width="80" TextAlign="Syncfusion.Blazor.Grids.TextAlign.Right"></TreeGridColumn>
        <TreeGridColumn Field="TaskName" HeaderText="Task Name" Width="160"></TreeGridColumn>
        <TreeGridColumn Field="Duration" HeaderText="Duration" Width="100" TextAlign="Syncfusion.Blazor.Grids.TextAlign.Right"></TreeGridColumn>
        <TreeGridColumn Field="Progress" HeaderText="Progress" Width="100" TextAlign="Syncfusion.Blazor.Grids.TextAlign.Right"></TreeGridColumn>
        <TreeGridColumn HeaderText="Manage Records" Width="150">
            <TreeGridCommandColumns>
                <TreeGridCommandColumn ButtonOption="@(new CommandButtonOptions() { Content = "Details", CssClass = "e-flat" })"></TreeGridCommandColumn>
            </TreeGridCommandColumns>
