That did it! Thank you so much!

OK. That name "UWM_Post_Calculate" points to an integration that might have been configured to "Modify Data". If this is true, and that integration does NOT modify any data, I suggest to change that configuration to "Queries Data" and this should just work.

Absolutely!

a!localVariables(
  
  
  local!integrationResponse: rule!UWM_POST_Calculate(
    caseId: ri!caseId,
    updatedByUserId:  rule!UWM_Get_User_Id(username: ri!loggedInUserVar),
    updatedByUserFullName:rule!UWM_Get_Full_Name(user: ri!loggedInUserVar),
  ),
  /* Extract the result from the body dictionary */
  local!result: index(local!integrationResponse, "body.result", false),


  /* Return the appropriate type based on the result */
  if(
    local!result,
    local!result,
    false
  )
)

What is this expression doing? Can you share the code?

I've tried that

a!localVariables(
  local!loggedInUserVar: fn!loggedInUser(),
  local!isLoading: false,
  local!isValid: false,
  a!sectionLayout(
    contents: {
      a!cardLayout(
        contents: {
          a!buttonArrayLayout(
            buttons: {
              a!buttonWidget(
                label: "Button",
                icon: "check-double",
                style: "OUTLINE",
                saveInto: {
                  a!save(local!isLoading, true)/* Start loading state */,
                  a!save(
                    local!isValid,
                    rule!UWM_Map_Calculate_Data(
                      caseId: ri!case.caseId,
                      loggedInuserVar: local!loggedInUserVar
                    ),
                    
                  )
                },
                disabled: local!isLoading/* Disable button while loading */
                
              )
            },
            align: "START",
            marginBelow: "NONE"
          ),
          {
            a!richTextDisplayField(
              labelPosition: "COLLAPSED",
              value: a!richTextItem(
                text: { fn!tostring(local!isValid) },
                style: "STRONG"
              ),
              
            )
          }
        }
      )
    },
    
  ),
  
)

and when I click the button I get this error:

Could not display interface. Please check definition and inputs. Interface Definition: Expression evaluation error [evaluation ID = 38a99:55128] : An error occurred while executing a save: Expression evaluation error in rule 'uwm_map_calculate_data': An error occurred when creating local!integrationResponse. a!save() and smart service functions cannot be used in a local variable unless "refreshAlways" is true for that local variable using the a!refreshVariable() function.

Why not just call that integration inside the saveInto of that button? There is no need to complicate things with this local variables construct.
