Auto Save form after BPF action completes

I have a BPF action that pulls back some variables (Process Arguments) that then set values against some form fields. This all works fine, but, it does not auto save the form so there are always "Unsaved changes" between transitions

Everything I have read points to putting and OnChange JS function call for that field in the form. The function works fine only if I manually change the values in the form or in the BPF field, but when the values are set via the action the JS function is not called and the form is still not saved.

Is there any way to get the form to save after a BPF action completes, or any other solution for the above issue?

Regards

Nick

RE: Auto Save form after BPF action completes

Hi partner,

"Onchange" event of fields could only be triggered when change the value manually.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/model-driven-apps/clientapi/reference/events/attribute-onchange

If you want to trigger the onchange function when the field value is changed by js code, you could use getAttribute().addOnchange(function(){}) method.

function onchangeActiveStage(executionContext){

    var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();

    var hassametaxrate=formContext.getAttribute("purchaseprocess");

    hassametaxrate.setValue(1);

    hassametaxrate.addOnChange(function () { changeBPF(formContext); });

}

changeBPF = function (formContext) {

    alert(1);

}

Hope it helps.

Best Regards,

Leo
