Autosave in tables

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by AnouckFierens 7

Is it possible to do some auto saving in a table on creation? The default auto save function in the admin center is on. But this is only when an item exists. 

 

I found an option to program a new WebResource but I would like to know of there are other options for this.

    Hi @AnouckFierens ,

    This would be custom if you did try to build this.  I would really consider not doing this from an approach perspective though because the user experience could be challenging.  Example is you could have a couple fields filled out and then it autosaves and you see errors on the form because you have not filled out required information.  Also it might pop up duplicate detection rule issues if you have this enabled as well.  These are some of the reasons that the autosave is not on for creation of new records from Microsoft.

     

    Hopefully this helps.  Please accept if answers your question or Like if helps in any way.


    Thanks,

    Drew
