[WEBAPP] Storage Activity enhancement

On webapps, the storage activity does not allow you to exclude fields, by default it just updates all data submitted from the front end forms, the way to get around this is to use javascript on both front end (to assign field data to variables) then on back end to manually handle updating the fields you wish to have control over for.

 

It would be very beneficial for an enhacement to be made to this activity, which allows the developer to uncheck fields to be excluded.

Hello @david--garcia 

 

This is currently possible in the webApp. You can enable the fields selection by unchecking the "Update the preloaded record"

Hey  @_Manoj_Kumar_ 

 

If you check the update the preloaded record, it will disable the checkboxes below, and update everything, if I Uncheck it then those fields that are selected are used to reconcile to existing recipients.

 

For instance, in my case, if I select First Name Last Name and Email, if the recipient data submitted on the front end form (fname,lname, email), it will check for existing recipients based on these three fields and if yes update to that record, otherwise create a new recipient
