How can I save the application without sending it completely.

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

I need that my application save the data but is not sent to the workflow. They are only sent when the person clicks on the '' send '' button. I have my application connected to a data source, but I see examples and those that come to me on the internet are of no use to me. I need when creating a collection, the data they are saved but not sent until the person is sure that they want to send the form. Also, how do I the people can edit the form? This button (SAVE) are not working for me, they don't save the form.

    You can save the input data to a collection without sending it to the source. Just use Collect(yourCollectionName,{Item1:Value1...}).
    This will create a local collection of data in the app without sending it anywhere.
    As for the save icon, can we see your code to see why it may not be working?

    In the examples I do not see that the option: .text or .value is displayed.

    Hi,

     

    It looks like you may be collecting the 'Actual Data Card' rather than the control values like DataCardValue1.Text - so if you click into your data card and select the textbox or etc that you want it to collect the value from, you should be able to see its name on the left and in the breadcrumb menu in the bottom left.

     

    Cheers,

    Sancho
