In the below scenario,
1. A Process has been triggered with one UI task.
2. User has accepted the UI Task and entered the required fields. All the fields were passed as active class parameter and saved.
3. User has clicked on Save Draft(Appian OOTB feature) and all the values entered in form is seen in the Properties window.
4. Admin user has cancelled the process instance and all the values saved via Save Draft has been vanished.
Is there a way to get the values back? the data saved in AC variables are need to be recovered. The issue here is since the task canceled, we can not get back the data stored using SAVE DRAFT function.
we have not stored the data in PV variable, In anyways can we get this data back?
Thanks,
Lakshmi

AFAIK there is no way to somehow recover that data. Does this happen frequently? Why was that process cancelled?
we have accidently canceled the task, we knew that data not stored in PV will be vanished, just checking is there any way to recover the data
Agree with Stefan, I have never seen a method to return saved ac! values. For this reason typically we will disable the OOTB 'Save' feature and implement our own Save button, which submits the form, chains through a Write to DS node and directly back to the form, persisting the values to pv! and the DS, and with chaining it appears to the user they have not left the form.
