My OnSuccess function is not firing.

Posted on by Fuzzy1 171

I have a submit button on an edit page with the following patch function. 

 

Patch(

    EP_Title_To_Persona,

    LookUp(EP_Title_To_Persona, Id=Gallery_Main.Selected.Id),

    {

        Persona: DataCardValue8_Persona.Text,

        Title: DataCardValue9_Title.Text,

        Updated_By:User().FullName,

        Updated_Date:Now()

        }

);

 

I added the following to the on success of the form. 

 

Notify("yep",NotificationType.Success,5000);Back()

 

I never get the notification, and the back doesn’t work. 

 

Why isn’t my on success firing?

    Hi,

     

    I don’t think the OnSuccess of the form will fire, because you’re not asking the form to do anything.

     

    Typically, to save a form back to a data source, we’d configure the OnSelect of a button with SubmitForm(NameOfYourForm). The form is then “active” and can trigger the OnSuccess (or OnFailure) properties depending on whether it’s successful.

     

    However, your Patch statement is saving the data directly instead. If this is by design, you can extend the Patch statement to handle success/failure notification, using the IfError function

    Yeah, I just proved the submit form fires the OnSuccess and Patch doesn't.
