Can we use c.server.update().then(function(){} twice in client script?

[Swati44]

Hi All,

Can we use "c.server.update().then(function(){}" twice in client script of a widget in service portal. 

Requirement is to pass the values from html to server, so am taking the changed input value from html and passing it to server script via client script. At first when I call c.server.update().then(function(){}, it works fine. But second time it is not.

Please help me in understanding.

Thanks & Regards,

Swathi.

Hi,

We can call c.server.update() multiple times.

If you want to save multiple input values from html you can bundle it in array and pass it across to server with c.server.update()

Please do mark this answer helpful , if it answered you question.

Hi,

If your requirement is to send multiple values at the same time then sent it as Object.

or setting this to data object separely.

c.data.firstVal = "one";

c.data.secondVal = "two";

then on server side you can access it as input.firstVal and input.secondVal

OR if you want to make sequential call to server then do below.

c.data.firstVal = "one";

c.server.update().then(function(resp){

  c.data.firstVal = resp.firstVal;  //will get you value "one"

  c.data.secondVal = "two";

  c.server.update();

})

On Server script you need to persist value of firsVal. like below

after you use input.firstVal , write last line like

data.firstVal = input.firstVal;

Hope all this makes sense.
