how to save the updated values of rule input into the particular CDT fields eg: I have multiple lists like list1 and list2....... in one interface if I update list1 it should save that list in that CDT. for each list, I have a separate primary key.
ex:list1-30
list2-31 if i update 30 it should save the values into that key of that CDT

Generally, wherever you are utilizing saveInto to update the lists, you can also use a!save() to update the CDT. Can you provide any sample code of what you are attempting etc?

This is a lot of code - can you identify where you're trying to perform this update (i.e. what line number)? Also just general guidance when posting code: use insert > insert code to create a more readable code block. It's also much easier for us to troubleshoot if the code itself works when we copy it into an interface and doesn't include sub-rules.
Thank you Peter Lewis. I got the solution form my colleague.
