Workflow examples
Prevent search reset on re-render
A simple example that will help to keep search results after re-render.
- On the page, a plugin element is placed with the following setup.
- A currentSearchValue custom state is created for the plugin element.
- The currentSearchValue custom state is used into Default search value field.
☝
This custom state is used to prevent the Circular reference error.
- A Button element is placed on the page to call re-render action.
- In Workflow tab, the following workflow is created.
- The Set state action is called to make both states equal.
☝
This workflow is used to prevent the Circular reference error.
ℹ️
This workflow will fired when the currentSearchValue custom state and Current search value (must have search enabled) state of plugin element values are different.
- When the Button element is clicked, then the Re-render table action is called.
- Result on the preview.
ℹ️
The above setup prevents reset of search results even after re-render.
