Ok this looks ok to me - how are you then saving the data to the database? Do you have a button that on save transfers the values from local!dataUpdated to a rule input?

here local!items are like local!data in your code and then i define local!dataUpdated as you said and then in gridlayout see priority field . i want priority new value should be saved .

I'm sorry, I don't follow what you're saying - was there a bug with inserting the code? Is it too many lines? If it's too long an interface, just seeing how you defined your local variable that you're looping over should help us troubleshoot.

RE: Problem of saving updated grid field in database

dhavalp0001 — Thu, 07 Jan 2021 17:55:50 GMT

I have inserted code but it couldn't be seen here.

RE: Problem of saving updated grid field in database

Peter Lewis — Thu, 07 Jan 2021 17:47:07 GMT

Can you post the full SAIL code for your interface? Please use the insert > code option so we can easily read it!

RE: Problem of saving updated grid field in database

dhavalp0001 — Thu, 07 Jan 2021 17:45:15 GMT

No still not saved.

RE: Problem of saving updated grid field in database

Peter Lewis — Thu, 07 Jan 2021 14:31:41 GMT

You have to define the data before you even get to the grid. Here's an example:

a!localVariables(
  local!data: {
    a!map(
      id: 1,
      name: "Test",
      value: ""
    ),
    a!map(
      id: 2,
      name: "Test Again",
      value: ""
    )
  },
  local!dataUpdated: a!forEach(
    items: local!data,
    expression: a!map(
      id: fv!item.id,
      name: fv!item.name,
      value: "New Value"
    )
  ),
  a!gridLayout(
    headerCells: {
      a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(label: "ID"),
      a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(label: "Name"),
      a!gridLayoutHeaderCell(label: "Value"),
    },
    rows: a!forEach(
      items: local!dataUpdated,
      expression: a!gridRowLayout(
        contents: {
          a!textField(
            value: fv!item.id,
            saveInto: fv!item.id
          ),
          a!textField(
            value: fv!item.name,
            saveInto: fv!item.name
          ),
          a!textField(
            value: fv!item.value,
            saveInto: fv!item.value
          )
        }
      )
    )
  )
)

RE: Problem of saving updated grid field in database

your first approach is good but this value is if one of the field of grid. so it's in foreach loop. So how can i use local variable where i want each row value in rule input of expression rule.

RE: Problem of saving updated grid field in database

Peter Lewis — Wed, 06 Jan 2021 17:54:13 GMT

One important thing to know about SAIL is that the saveInto is only triggered if you interact with the field. So even if the value displays as 5, that value doesn't get saved upon submit on the form unless you typed something into the field.

Usually in cases like this, I'd suggest one of two other approaches:

Define the value on load of the page rather than in the value section - this can be done by setting the initial value of the data equal to the value you want either by setting the data in a local variable or passing data into your rule input via a parameter.
Use the submit button to update the results - you can be confident that the submit button will be interacted with, so this gives you an opportunity to save your default value of "5" in any fields that don't currently have a value.
