Hi Dojo,
I have table in Low Code App and every row represent one DOM instance. User wants to do changes on table columns (FieldDescriptors) and then on Button press it should update all DOM instances from table.
Is this feature possible with our current version for the Low Code App?
Regards,
Dario.
Hi Dario,
Our table currently does not allow changing values. So as you already indicated, the current way to ingest or update items is through the form component.
Note that you can pass along the selected values for a column to a script by linking the input parameter to said column. These values are passed along in a JSON array format which needs to be parsed in the script.
Hi Dario. Thank you for your question. It is possible to trigger the automation script that would use the data from your row to update the DOM instances. However, in order to not update all the rows every time, even the ones without changes, I would suggest you create a script that would update one row at the time, after the changes are applied.
Hi Alija, thank you for your reply. The current solution has an update of an individual DOM instance by calling a script on “Save the form” for an individual dom instance. In that case, the user has to press the “edit” button for specified row, after which he will get a form for the DOM instance for selected row in a popup. After changing fields, when user press on the button in that popup window, it will do “Save the form” action which will trigger automation script where is logic to update specified DOM instance.
A solution that would be more suitable for the user is to enter the data for the entire table or for part of the table (more than one row) and finally press the “Apply” button to save all changes from the table to the DOM instance displayed in that table in one go. I know that it is possible to trigger the script, but we can’t send data for all updated dom instances to script parameters because there is no option to get updated data from table in low code app and send it as script parameters to perform something like “bulk update” for DOM instances in automation script.
