@tushaar_srivastava,

You can try this:

Hi @tushaar_srivastava ,

 

Have you tried adding composite="{Boolean}true" for the multifield.

This post explains it well.

 

Regards,

Santosh

    Hi @tushaar_srivastava 

    Please add changes in provided dialog xml as mentioned below, then the value will be stored & retained in dialog as expected.

     

    change "granite/ui/components/foundation/form/multifield" to "granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/multifield" and add composite="{Boolean}true"

    <formFields
            jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"
            sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/coral/foundation/form/multifield"  
            composite="{Boolean}true"
            eaem-multi-nested=""
            fieldLabel="Content"
            maxLimit="4">

     

     Hope this helps!
