Check if a record needs a save

You can use this to determine if the record needs saving (if the save button is showing)

if (this.get("ShowSaveButton")) {
    // needs saving
}

Ryan Farley,

Hi Ryan,

Any possibilities in freedom UI for this?

Geeviniy Vazavan,

For Freedom UI you can check the attribute “HasUnsavedData”. This will tell you if the page needs to be saved.

const needsSave = await request.$context.HasUnsavedData;
if (needsSave) {
    // do somehting
}

Additionally, you can listen for changes to this attribute as well to respond to when it changes:

{
    request: "crt.HandleViewModelAttributeChangeRequest",
    handler: async (request, next) => {
        if (request.attributeName === "HasUnsavedData" && request.value) {
            // the form needs saving, request.value will be true if needs saving
        }
        return next?.handle(request);
    }
}
