Hi, I need to "catch" assign event before saving, the situation is that when I assign my record to an other user I need to check if the field Owner isDirty. if it's dirty the record can't be saved automatically and need to have some checks. I added my rules (if/else) to onSave event, and after clicking assign I thought the Owner field will be dirty but it return false and the record was saved... is there a way to catch the assign event or how do I stop from saving after assign and check some rules before saving?

Hi Sahara,

I would say you have to depend on SaveMode value 58 and then trigger custom logic after calling preventDefault, based on your logic you may call the save and refresh asynchronously.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/model-driven-apps/clientapi/reference/formcontext-data-entity/addonsave

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/model-driven-apps/clientapi/reference/save-event-arguments/getsavemode

function preventAutoSave(executionContext) {

var formContext = exeutionContext.getFormContext();
    var eventArgs = executionContext.getEventArgs();
    if (eventArgs.getSaveMode() == 58) {
        eventArgs.preventDefault();

   //do custom logic and save asynchronously , you my refresh the form from successcallback formContext.data.refresh(false)

formContext.data.save(saveOptions).then(successCallback, errorCallback);

    }
}
