    Hi [mention:ba25eadf67f1446e8fb247e7cde57571:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05]

    I think we can achieve above requirement using paragraph component and trigger write to data store entity smart service using button.

      I have created something similar to this still not saving the value into database

      . 

      {
  a!cardLayout(
    contents: {
      a!richTextDisplayField(
        labelPosition: "COLLAPSED",
        value: {
          a!richTextItem(
            text: {today()}
          )
        },
        preventWrapping: true,
        align: "RIGHT",
        marginAbove: "NONE",
        marginBelow: "NONE"
      ),
      a!paragraphField(
        label: "Paragraph",
        labelPosition: "COLLAPSED",
        value: ri!spData['recordType!{d5c54eac-b1d7-451f-a3d8-7bdc984725f5}PEF ScratchPad.fields.{1968f140-6e56-482c-b90c-97f8d648c677}text'],

        It would have been nice to show us your implementation in the first place. And mention that the issue is not the color, but storing the data to the database.

        I need answers to the following questions:

        - Do you see the data entered in that rule input?

        - Does writing to that record work in other places?

        - Do you see any error messages?

        - Did you check the tomcat-stdout log file?
