Saving my rule inputs for my interface and they are gone on reload?

I go to save after entering the rule input values

When you say "entering the rule input values", do you mean entering TEST values?  Do you understand that these values are for loading within the interface editor only, for demonstration / testing purposes?  The actual rule inputs will be passed in (if necessary) by the parent interface and/or process model later.

But if you're just talking about test values: did you click the "set as defaults" button prior to saving?

when I reload the interface I get an error at the top that looks like this:

The error message displayed here has nothing (in particular) to do with your rule input entry - it's telling you that you're not passing in enough components in your gridRow for the expected number (basically the number of components passed in needs to match the number of columns defined).

Ah that's what I was confused about thank you very much! I wanted to be able to set my default test values so each time I go back I can test accordingly. I realize it is just testing data but didn't want to have to enter it in each time I made a change in the expression.

Gotcha - yes this is a very good practice to get used to.  Just make sure to enter your values via the pop-up interface you get when you press the "TEST" button on the top bar; if you simply click the rule inputs in the right-hand panel and manually set values there, it'll work for testing in that particular instance but there's no way to make it persist like when you use "save as default".
