Hi,
We have a process and a start form interface with a "Save draft" button and a "Write to DB entity" at the end of the flow.
- Could you tell me where Appian stores its data when the user clicks on this button please ? (in a task, in a dedicated Appian table ?)
(the corresponding DB table is not impacted as the smart service of the next node is not called yet)
- Does this action can be linked to an event, to accomplish some tasks ? or Draft option is a completely internal Appian option ?
Regards

The 'Save Draft' button persists values that are saved into the rule inputs. Within the process model node for User Input task, the rule inputs of the form map directly the activity class parameter inputs. When you click 'Save Draft', Appian saves the values to those activity class parameters. This means that data is stored in the active process instance.
Thank you for all your replies, and sorry, you're right, it is a simple User Input Task.
@stefan, I was just thinking about how it works. No real needs for the moment.
